Lin Yutong sat in front of the dressing table and carefully looked at the makeup on her face. She chose a princess-colored cheongsam.
Just as he was about to change his clothes, the door curtain opened, and a three or four-year-old child slowly walked in. Lin Yutong had a smile on his face.
Time flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, the period of filial piety has passed. Hongxuan can already read and draw red by himself.
The fourth master went to the imperial mausoleum to pay homage to the late emperor.
It can be regarded as the last step of observing filial piety.
Hongxuan was young and was left in the palace. Although there was no unnecessary expression on the child's face, he still exuded the aura of "I'm not happy".
Lin Yutong reached out to hug him. When he resisted slightly, he sat on Lin Yutong's lap obediently. "When you grow up, you can go wherever you want. It's windy today, so you might as well not go out."
Now that the first lunar month has just begun, the weather is still very cold.
The imperial chariot stopped outside the imperial mausoleum, and the fourth master walked inside on foot, followed by a crowd of people wandering behind.
The eighth master knelt on the roadside to greet the holy driver.
But the fourth master seemed to have disappeared and walked directly past him.
Honghui sometimes feels that Uncle Eighth is really a cold-hearted person. As long as he is willing to give in and rewrite the contents of the account books he burned, even if it is not comprehensive, Huang Ama will take it for granted.
Come on, give Hongwang some respect.
But he was good at it. He resolutely refused to write and denied it. He refused to admit it. He also ignored the children.
This is the most ruthless person Honghui has ever seen.
But let Ba Ye say it, it is something that Fujin will protect with his life, and he cannot take it out even if he dies.
So, it became like this.
The eighth master knelt to welcome the fourth master and sent the fourth master off on his knees.
From beginning to end, no one stayed by his side.
After the mourning period, the whole capital became lively. This year is the third year of Yongzheng's reign, and it is the first draft.
Moreover, the eldest elder brother and the second elder brother have both reached the age of marriage. The two princes Fujin will definitely be born among this generation of beautiful girls.
Even if it's not Fujin, it's Fujin or Gege, but it's mostly planned by others.
Therefore, the Empress Dowager, Lin Yutong and Li Shi, including the Empress Dowager who did not show her face in the palace, were all asked to see her.
Most of them were ladies with girls.
Even the third and fifth blessings, because of their relationship with their natal family, they often brought their nieces to the palace to pay their respects.
There were many gorgeous girls in the palace, and it suddenly became crowded.
Honghui and Hongyun usually didn't dare to come in, for fear of running into someone else's girl.
Lin Yutong also asked the people below to have some snacks and not to rush into each other.
After all, all the elder brothers in the palace are almost at the age of marriage.
Lin Yutong had been seeing so many people all day, and even feeling dizzy and dizzy was not enough to describe how exhausted she was.
"Are you spoiled for choice?" The fourth master has become emperor in the past two years, and has become more and more comfortable in handling political affairs. Now he looks very calm. Not to mention that he came back in the evening, and he still had time to arrange flowers. He brought the narcissus roses sent from the conservatory.
, it’s very elegantly done.
Lin Yutong leaned on the couch, stretched out her hand to rub her forehead, and then the fourth master's hand came over and pressed her sunburn.
"You have become more and more lazy in the past two years. You are always unwilling to meet people." Fourth Master gently squeezed her and let her lean into his arms to feel comfortable. He knew best what this kind of constant meeting with people was.
I feel it. I can do it for a day with my back straight, and it doesn’t feel like I have to ride for a day.
Lin Yutong sighed comfortably, "Master, I am just doing an errand as the Queen. If possible, it would be great to just shrink under your wings and not worry about anything."
The Fourth Master chuckled lightly and said, "Nonsense." He was scolded, but his tone seemed to be pleased by Lin Yutong's words.
Nowadays, Lin Yutong is more and more aware of the fourth master's temperament. If he can speak to the right place, he doesn't have to think twice, just open his mouth.
As a result, Fourth Master became more and more comfortable, and Lin Yutong became more and more relaxed.
It seems that the relationship between the emperor and the queen is particularly different.
Lin Yutong lay down and pillowed on the fourth master's lap, "My daughters are all good, but I can't think of one that I'm satisfied with. But if I want to say what shortcomings my daughter has, it's still the same.
, It really has obvious shortcomings, and you don’t dare to bring it in for me to see. It’s so embarrassing!” And this is not only our own Honghui and Hongyun, but also nephews like Hongsheng Hongshu.
Just be casual, what should you do if it doesn't suit you in the future?
"You are thinking too much. It's okay. It will be fine if you work hard in the future." Fourth Master said nonchalantly, "As long as the basic family background is suitable, nothing else matters." Lao Wu, Lao Seven, Lao Ninth, etc.
Brother, aren't you and Fujin both living a good life now? It wasn't the late emperor who pointed it out with his eyes closed at the beginning. Maybe it was because the late emperor was both father and mother at that time, so he didn't think too much about it. He seems to recall now that they are both the late emperor.
Pick out those who are of the right age and put them on a plate with their names written on them. Then look at the origins of these girls and pick out those whose origins are not suitable. Those who are left on the plate, look at the portraits again and keep those that are pleasing to the eye.
The ones that were not pleasing to the eye were taken out again. After that, the Qin Tian Supervisor was asked to calculate the horoscopes, and the ones that matched were found. The ones that did not match were selected from the eliminated ones.
Lin Yutong listened blankly, and then said in surprise: "This is how I was chosen for you."
Fourth Master nodded, "What do you think?"
This is really a world that only values power and not face.
Of course, the original owner's face could only be described as pretty and indifferent. She thought that if she saw the real person, she might not be able to point it out to the Fourth Master.
"Have you met the girl from the Fucha family?" Fourth Master asked again.
No matter how slow and unwilling Lin Yutong was, he still knew that Fourth Master probably still wanted to fix Honghui with a girl from the Fucha family.
When the fourth master saw Lin Yutong, he still remained silent and said, "Honghui must have his own power behind him. You should understand this. Otherwise... how will he control the overall situation in the future?"
Lin Yutong sat up all of a sudden, her eyes moistened. She was afraid that the fourth master would be wary of the power behind Honghui in the future, so she never wanted to choose from these particularly prominent families. She had always focused on those with rich surnames but little influence.
Xian's family. Unexpectedly, Fourth Master's thoughts were exactly opposite to hers.
"Master..." Lin Yutong's voice was choked with sobs. She held Fourth Master's hand tightly.
The Fourth Master smiled and said: "What are you thinking about? I will not push Honghui too hard. The late Emperor used too much force and missed it once. I will not make the mistake a second time."
If this is the case, then my so-called prejudice against the Fucha family is not worth mentioning in the face of the overall situation.
"Then the girl from the Fucha family." Lin Yutong still opened his mouth and said this.
The fourth master asked Lin Yutong to lie down again, "If you don't like it, a girl he likes can be Honghui's side wife in the future."
"No!" Lin Yutong shook his head firmly, "My mother didn't even think of causing trouble for me, so how can I cause trouble for my daughters-in-law. No matter which son it is, I will only find my legitimate wife, and I don't care about the others."
The fourth master sighed, "You think like this... I'm used to it." He must have been afraid of being tortured by concubines in the early years.
He explained to Lin Yutong, "In this royal family, we can't let all the children come from the same family."
Lin Yutong looked at the Fourth Master in astonishment, not understanding what the Fourth Master meant.
The Fourth Master did not go any further.
Lin Yutong could only keep this matter in mind and consider it slowly. But he did not dare to ask further. "I did what I should do. As for the children's choices and how they want to live, let's not ask, okay?
"
The Fourth Master laughed and said, "Why not! Your daughters-in-law are in your charge. It is their blessing that you don't act like a bad mother-in-law."
Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, Lin Yutong couldn't help but put her hands on her face, "Master, I am getting old." Time flies so fast, now I am a mother-in-law. In the blink of an eye, I am a grandmother.
What should I do if the more I think about it, the more terrifying I feel?
The fourth master put his hand on Lin Yutong's face, "How old are you? You're even more beautiful than you were then."
Go! It didn’t look good at all back then.
The fourth master really looked at Lin Yutong seriously, "Don't tell me, you are really becoming more refined and younger as you grow older."
In fact, there are still some lines at the corners of the eyes when you smile. This should have something to do with giving birth.
But Lin Yutong is still happy. Because the fourth master is actually in his prime now. He is in a high position and has a great bearing. He has become more and more like a mature man. Moreover, he has always maintained a good figure with smooth curves. She often waits for him to groom himself.
For this reason, I couldn't help but take advantage of him. The fourth master couldn't stop laughing every time.
Sometimes she feels that she has really reached the age of thirty.
The two of them talked and talked, and they became hungry. It was the period of filial piety, so it was inevitable to indulge a little.
"Everything is delicate." Fourth Master said, pinching Lin Yutong hard.
Lin Yutong felt itchy and painful, so she hid with a smile.
The two of them were lying in bed and talking about Hong Yun and Fujin's candidates.
The Fourth Master sighed in a low voice, "What do you think of the Hesheli family?"
Lin Yutong was a little confused as to why she chose such a surname. She asked, "Is it from Suo'etu's lineage?"
The fourth master shook his head, "He is a concubine. No matter how prominent he is, he is not a direct descendant. He is Prince Li's great-uncle, not his biological grandfather."
"What do you mean, do you want to give the girl from Dizhi to Hongyun?" Lin Yutong asked.
The Fourth Master nodded, "Also, let's decide on Mo Yaqi's marriage. Guarjia's family."
One is the maternal family of Prince Li, and the other is the natal family of Prince Li Fujin.
Lin Yutong's mind raced and he immediately understood what Fourth Master meant. If Hong Xi really had different intentions, it would be difficult for him to make a name for himself without the help of these two families. And these two families could finally get rid of the shadow of Prince Li's past, and
Climb up to the emperor's brother and the princess. Then, you won't be tempted to follow Hongxi and cause trouble.
This marriage still has something to do with political affairs...(.)
