The carriage stopped and stopped along the way, and she didn't know why. Did something happen? Because there were several children there, she couldn't open the curtain to ask. She was afraid that the wind would freeze the children.
When we arrived at the gate of the palace, we had to walk inside. From a distance, we could see a carried carriage moving forward not far ahead. The snow fell even harder.
When the fourth master saw Lin Yutong looking at the carriage from a distance, he felt a little unhappy. The one on the carriage was Prince Zhijun, Fujin, and his daughter. He must have been a little envious of his own family, Fujin.
And Lin Yutong thought to herself: This Prince Zhi is indeed very high-profile. As the eldest son, he has to be different from the other brothers in every aspect. As for whether she is envious or not, she has never thought about it.
I was lost in thought when I heard the fourth master say in his ear: "I will definitely let you ride on a better one in the future." The carriage of Prince Fujin was carried by four people, while that of Prince Fujin was carried by eight people.
There were only two people to carry Belleforkin. He was such a shabby chariot, and no one dared to be like Prince Zhi.
Lin Yutong nodded, "That's for sure." There was no doubt at all. In the future, he would be the Queen's sedan chair, or even the Queen Mother's sedan chair. I really don't envy the prince's carriage at all.
The Fourth Master was amused by his matter-of-fact tone, "You do think highly of your father."
Lin Yutong shook his exposed fingertips and said, "It's necessary."
The fourth master saw that her fingertips exposed from her sleeves were red with cold, so he stretched out his hand, held it in his own hand and covered it.
Lin Yutong was so cold that she didn't feel so happy to have Fourth Master warm her hands, because no one was warmer than anyone else.
The third master over there turned his head, oh! What did you see?
I can't tell! The fourth child looked cold, as if someone owed him two hundred taels of silver. But he was really affectionate towards Fujin.
Su Peisheng was on the side and did not dare to look up at Lin Yutong's face. He said in a disgraceful voice: "Master, the third master has passed."
The fourth master then gave Lin Yutong's hand and said to her: "You take Li and Mo Yaqi to Yonghe Palace, and I take Honghui and Hongyun, so you don't have to worry."
Lin Yutong nodded and looked back at Mrs. Li. Seeing Da Gege standing on the side, he said: "Ask grandma to hold me. You are a small person with small steps and can't keep up." If you can avoid freezing, why do you have to come out?
Mrs. Li glanced at Lin Yutong gratefully. She had just seen that all the princesses in the third master's house left by themselves.
Seriously speaking, this is about rules, but in fact, who is watching this? As long as Fujin doesn't pick any problems, it will be fine.
The snow had just fallen and was cleaned up by the sweeping eunuchs. But the ground was so frozen that it was hard to walk on the bottom of a flower pot. It was really difficult to walk without someone to support me.
At the entrance of Yonghe Palace, Aunt Ping was waiting. She met Lin Yutong and said, "Fu Jin, come in quickly. Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet. Follow me to the Nuan Pavilion first."
How could the empress not get up on such a day? I just asked them to warm up and tidy up their appearance first.
"Thank you, Mother, for being considerate." Lin Yutong smiled and said without being polite.
Aunt Tingping asked again: "Fu Jin didn't bring his two elder brothers into the palace?"
"I went to the front with our master, and he will probably have to be sent over by his mother after a while." Lin Yutong replied.
The charcoal fire was burning in the Nuan Pavilion, and Lin Yutong took off his cloak. He said to Li: "Rub Mo Yaqi's face. The wind has been blowing for a while." She was afraid that her skin would become chapped.
Only when the Zhaojia clan of the Thirteenth Fujin Dynasty and the Wanyan clan of the Fourteenth Fujin Dynasty arrived did Grandma Ping say that the empress was up.
The two people also felt warm, and they quickly got up and followed Lin Yutong into the main hall.
In terms of age, Concubine De gave birth to her fourth master when she was nineteen. The fourth master is twenty-six this year, and Concubine De is about forty-five this year. But she looks like she is thirty-seven. She is very well-maintained.
good.
Judging from her appearance, she was indeed a rare beauty. Otherwise Kangxi would not have had six children with her.
They greeted each other, saw her holding Wanyan's hand, asking about the daily life of the fourteenth, and also asked how the concubine of the fourteenth was doing? Even the thirteenth Fujin seemed to be more enthusiastic than Lin Yutong.
But her eyes glanced at Da Gege from time to time. Lin Yutong noticed that the milk cake placed in front of Da Gege was the only one. It didn't look like the craftsmanship of the imperial kitchen. I'm afraid it was because he was afraid that the children would get up.
I haven’t had a good meal for a long time, so I specially asked the small kitchen to make it.
Lin Yutong suddenly felt uncomfortable. In fact, the fourth master was very similar to De Fei in terms of his restrained emotions.
She waved to Mo Yaqi. Mo Yaqi was also familiar with Lin Yutong recently, so she was not afraid and walked over.
Lin Yutong whispered, "If you're hungry, eat milk cake. It doesn't matter. I specially asked someone to make it for you."
Mo Yaqi's eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Concubine De, then she blessed herself, sat back, and ate milk cakes and drank tea comfortably. Concubine De looked at her again, and she pursed her lips and smiled at Concubine De.
.
Lin Yutong looked at Concubine De and the lines at the corners of her mouth softened.
Zhaojia glanced back and forth and lowered his eyelids.
After talking for a while, the time was almost up.
"It's time to go pay your respects to the Queen Mother, your Majesty," Aunt Ping reminded.
Concubine De paused for a moment, glanced at Mo Yaqi, and said to Lin Yutong: "Ask Mrs. Li to take Da Gege in the palace."
Lin Yutong responded. He was worried that he would accidentally bump into her when she talked about Fu Meng. He said: "Mo Yaqi took a few breaths of air and coughed a little on the way. Let her take it easy in the house."
Concubine De nodded. This wife used to look like a wooden person, but now she looks better.
Li Shi and Mo Yaqi looked at Lin Yutong's expressions and knew that it was enough to not annoy them.
It was stormy and snowy outside at the moment, and Concubine De did not ask for help. This was a person who had been cautious in the palace all her life. Her background destined her to have a harder time than others. It is really true that she can still maintain this caution now.
It's not easy.
A woman who is one of the four concubines, regardless of her background, is a rare smart person.
Lin Yutong stepped forward and held De Concubine's other side. De Concubine patted Lin Yutong's hand and shook her head gently.
Arriving at the entrance of Yongshou Palace, Lin Yutong slowly let go of Concubine De's arm and stood behind her.
Zhaojia glanced up again, deep thought flashing in his eyes.
Lin Yutong said in his heart that Zhaojia was a careful person.
When we arrived at Yongshou Palace, it was neither too early nor too late. Concubine Hui had just walked in with Dafujin and Bafujin, and came face to face with Concubine Rong and Sanfujin. Looking back, she could see that Concubine Yi, with Wufujin and Jiufujin, had arrived immediately.
Lin Yutong was quite experienced. It seemed like he had made an appointment, but he didn’t know how he did it.
The old queen mother was able to pick up what she was saying, and Lin Yutong could understand her roughly. She was really only half-assed in Mongolian.
Lin Yutong can be regarded as seeing the royal family Fu Jin all over.
She also paid special attention to Ba Ye's biological mother, Mrs. Wei.
The water-like beauty will seduce anyone who sees her.
Worshiping ancestors on New Year's Eve is not only a matter for men. Women also follow the Queen Mother and have to worship.
Fortunately, I practiced in advance, otherwise my secret would have been exposed.
By the time everything was over, Lin Yutong was almost frozen. She couldn't help but worry about whether Honghui would be frozen.
As soon as the ancestor worship was over, the fourth master asked Su Peisheng to personally deliver the two children to Yonghe Palace.
Lin Yutong also just came back with Concubine De. When she saw the two children, she hurriedly touched their bodies, "Are they cold? Are your legs cold?" she asked in a low voice.
Honghui whispered: "My son's futon is hot. It's so hot that it never gets cold."
Hong Yun nodded.
Lin Yutong remembered that when Aunt Ping saw her, she asked about the whereabouts of the two children. She couldn't help but look at Aunt Ping and nodded to her. This must have been sent by Concubine De.
"Go and say hello to the empress." Lin Yutong patted the two children's heads and said.
When Honghui saw Lin Yutong looking at the nanny over there, he knew what it meant. He nodded in agreement.
He pulled Hong Yun closer to her. He was not polite and leaned into Concubine De's arms with a smile.
Concubine De touched her sympathetically and asked, "Are you feeling better now?"
"Okay. My grandson can already draw the bow that my fourteenth uncle gave to my grandson before." Honghui said, and whispered in Concubine De's ear: "It wasn't cold at all just now, mom."
There was a banquet in front of us. All the men of the clan were here tonight.
The emperor only asked Old Thirteen and Old Fourteen to hold the pots and pour wine for the princes of the clan.
Beside the emperor, on one side is the prince, and on the other side, slightly further away, is Prince Zhi.
Prince Zhi held the wine glass and squinted at the excitement below. He felt that all the brothers were looking at him from time to time. He wished he could give these things a beating. What are you looking at? Who thinks this seat is easy to sit on? Come and sit down
Ah! You don’t think what happened to your eldest brother is a big deal, do you? It’s not a big deal if you all just watch the excitement.
This seat not only bites people butts, it can also kill people.
But what can be done? Huang Ama asked him to sit down, and he had to sit down. But it was easy to get up, but not easy to get down. Even if Huang Ama asked him to get down in the future, the people surrounding this chair would not be willing to sit down.
came down.
There is always a situation that neither Huang Ama nor himself can control. Now he already feels the danger of losing control.
But these younger brothers below seem to be very keen on this position. Rush! Rush forward! Come and know what kind of life your eldest brother is living.
The prince poured a glass of wine by himself and sipped it slowly. Only he could understand what the wine tasted like. He turned to look at Prince Zhi, and their eyes separated as soon as they met.
If anyone knows how they feel, it's only each other.
The two brothers are like black-eyed chickens, but only each other can know each other's feelings.
The fourth master was holding the wine glass and twirling it around in his hand, but he didn't drink it.
Suddenly I heard the emperor say: "The fourth brother is weak in drinking, so I gave him some honey water instead."
Fourth Master's heart skipped a beat. He didn't want to go up at all now. But he still stood up and thanked him: "Thank you, Emperor Ama, for your kindness."
Feeling that the gazes of his brothers were about to burn him up, he suddenly heard the voice of Fourteenth: "Fourth brother is also drinking that woman's thing. Emperor Ama, our Manchu Batru, who is drinking honey?"
"Water. Don't look at myna's frailty. Myna's drinking capacity is the same among us brothers..." He said, giving a thumbs up.
Everyone burst out laughing. The Fourth Master still had the same look on his face, and it was hard to tell whether he was unhappy or not.
Kangxi asked the eighth master with great interest.
Although the fourth master wished he could stuff the fourteenth child back into his mother's belly, he finally got away by mistake.
It seems that the eighth child is quite active. The eighth child has a plan. You, the fourteenth child, are jumping around and don't know what you are planning?
The fifth master sat down and greeted the fourth master sympathetically. It was indeed quite pitiful to meet such a terrible younger brother. Although Lao Jiu also followed Lao Ba, he was not so stupid.
.
Fourth Master nodded and drank the wine in his hand, feeling a little more comfortable.
The third master sat on the upper hand and whispered: "Fourth, you look cold, but my brother really doesn't see it. You are really a compassionate person."
The fourth master was stunned for a moment, raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Third brother's words are meaningless." If you don't know, what do you think he is doing outside?
The third master said: "I am at the gate of the palace today..."
The Fourth Master thought for a long time before he suddenly realized, "Are you still an elder brother? You can talk about anything." He pointed to the Third Master's cup and said, "Forfeit wine! Three glasses."
The Third Master slapped his hand and slapped his mouth, calling you a bitch. After saying that, he drank three glasses of wine in a row.
Thirteen came over with a smile and sat next to Fourth Brother, "I'll give Fourth Brother a toast."
The fourth master drank to the face-saving ones. When it comes to likability, thirteen is much more likable than fourteen.
Lao Jiu was sitting diagonally opposite, happened to see him, and yelled: "Old Thirteen, you are not honest. What do you mean by toasting only the fourth brother? Are you looking down on me, my brother?"
Fifth Master wished he could shut Lao Jiu's mouth. Do you think you can offend someone by doing nothing?
The Fourth Master glanced at Lao Jiu from the corner of his eyes and snorted in his heart, writing this down first.
Thirteen laughed and said: "Fourth brother is not afraid of getting drunk when he drinks honey water, so the younger brother is the one who wants to offend me. If Ninth Brother is not afraid of getting drunk, my younger brother will hold the pot for Ninth Brother tonight."
Lao Jiu's mouth froze. Damn it! How could I forget this incident?
Lao Shi snickered twice and muttered: "Brother Ninth, what are you talking about? Lao Thirteen is definitely targeting you tonight. He has also targeted Brother Four. Brother Four is petty, so you wait for him to deal with you.
Bar."
Lao Jiu also slapped his mouth, telling you to talk too much. The retribution for this world has come.
That’s right! Lao Wu said in his heart when he saw Lao Jiu’s behavior.
Prince Zhi and the prince sat on it and took a clear look at the situation below.
Lao Wu started to pretend to be drunk since Lao Jiu opened his mouth and squinted his eyes. Lao Qi even took Fifty-Sixteen's side and refused to join this group of restless brothers.
Except for these two worry-free ones, no one is easy to get along with.
The New Year's Eve banquet ended after midnight.
The children were all sleepy and couldn't sleep in the palace. They all fell asleep when they were asked to be hugged by their grandma.
Fourth Master was waiting for Lin Yutong and his party at the gate of the palace.
"It's evening, let's go back by car. Stop riding." Lin Yutong whispered. There was snow on the road. Although it was cleaned in time, it was already midnight.
"No problem! You and I should get in the car first." He said, heading forward.
Why is this person so stubborn?
Who saw it in the middle of the night? Didn't you see that the third master just left on his own and asked someone to support him when he left the palace and pretended to be drunk?
This is harsh on others and even more demanding on ourselves.
As soon as he returned to the yard, Lin Yutong quickly asked someone to bring hot water, "I quickly went in to soak. Let me go and see if the child has been settled?"
The bath water is mixed with a thick ginger soup, which is just right to drive away the cold.
When Lin Yutong took a look at Honghui and Hongyun's condition and entered the room, Fourth Master had already finished washing.
"It would be nice to soak in it for a while longer." Lin Yutong said, "I guess I didn't drink much."
"I didn't drink it. The emperor asked me to change it to honey water." The fourth master said softly and sadly.
"Can I just change it for you?" Lin Yutong stopped taking off the jewelry and asked.
"It's okay! I asked Old Fourteen to stir things up." The Fourth Master said as he turned over on the kang.
"Fourteenth brother is so smart?" Lin Yutong said in disbelief.
Fourth Master felt angry when he thought about it, and he snorted coldly: "He?" (. )
