The third princess put her arms around Yinzhen's neck and stared at her Emperor Ama intently. She seemed to understand, and even had a thoughtful expression on her face for a moment.
Ji Ling couldn't laugh or cry at the side. Could Xindao's daughter at this age understand what "without distractions" meant?
The third princess climbed down from Yinzhen's knees and sat obediently on a small bench on one side. Then she opened her mouth and motioned for Grandma Chen to feed her.
Grandma Chen knelt beside her and wiped the sweat from her head.
Ji Ling saw that while her daughter was being fed, she would raise her head to glance at his mother from time to time.
After dinner, the third princess was carried to the next room, where she rested with her sixth brother.
She took a nap during the day, but was surprisingly energetic at night. She kept making a fuss about riding the unicorn as a pony. Aunt Chen and Bixue could only half-hold her and let her sit on the unicorn's back and play.
The sixth elder brother was on the crib, watching, smiling stupidly, and babbling in words that only he could understand.
Although Ji Ling was dining outside, he could still hear the excitement inside.
The children's wing is called a wing - in fact, the area is almost the same as the greenhouse here, and it has all the furnishings. It is similar to a large suite.
There is also a small room on the north side. If you open the door, you can go directly to the Sixth Brother's side. It is specially used for the rest of the grandma and wet nurse.
Ji Ling and Yinzhen finished their dinner, and the two of them called for hot water. After washing, they heard the noise next door still not stopping. The third princess was laughing so hard that she was screaming and almost out of breath.
Qilin must have been tortured a lot, and occasionally he would bark a few times in a low voice, feeling aggrieved.
Ji Ling called Qixi over and warned her: "It's almost done. Tell grandma to watch the sixth brother and the third princess go to bed early. Children, please don't stay up late."
Qixi agreed, packed up her things and left. When Ji Ling turned around, she saw Yinzhen wearing a plain white singlet and leaning on the bedside, looking at her with a slight smile.
Every time he wears these plain white clothes, he looks elegant and elegant, and his eyebrows become much gentler.
Ji Ling felt a little embarrassed by him and blurted out: "What's wrong?"
Yinzhen put his arm around her shoulders and said warmly: "Lingling, you have raised my children extremely well."
He took Ji Ling's hand, brought it to his lips, lowered his head and kissed it, and said in a deep voice: "From now on, I believe that my Lingling will be a good mother."
Ji Ling was startled, unable to understand what he said for a moment, and thought to himself: In the future?
Isn't she now the mother-in-law of two children?
But no matter what, she was very happy to get praise from Yinzhen.
Not only happy, but also a little embarrassed, Ji Ling raised her hand and touched her chin gently, and said with a smile: "I treat them now... this is completely freeing."
She just thinks that children have the nature of children, such as Xi'er, how old is she?
If you want to teach those etiquette and rules strictly, wait until they are three or four years old. Then let them play happily!
Didn't Adler once say? Happy people are healed by childhood throughout their lives; unhappy people are healed by childhood throughout their lives.
You can explore the world as much as you want, and no matter when you look back, your mother will be behind you.
Yinzhen patted the back of her hand and said with a smile: "Freezing? Whether it's freeing or educating, you have to take care of yourself first and rest early."
The two of them blew out the lamps and took off the bed curtains. Yinzhen sat on the side of the bed, covered in moonlight.
He turned his head in the shadows and looked at Ji Ling tenderly.
Ji Ling instinctively moved aside to make a space for him. The half she was lying on had already been warmed by her body temperature.
She reached out and gently tugged on Yinzhen's sleeve. Yinzhen lay down, stretched out his hand to pull the quilt, and covered it carefully with Ji Ling.
Ji Ling got into his arms skillfully.
I heard Yinzhen let out a long breath, and suddenly said in a low and inaudible voice: "I really hope that Hongxin can grow up quickly."
Ji Ling was shocked as she thought of her third elder brother Hongshi.
She didn't say anything, and stretched out her arms to hug Yinzhen's waist.
…
Two days later, Yinzhen led the princes, ministers, Eight Banners soldiers, and concubines to set out from Shengjing, intending to take the mountain road east of Tieling and head towards Jilin to worship at Changbai Mountain.
In addition to worshiping the Three Tombs of their ancestors, this is the second major event during the Eastern Tour - Changbai Mountain has nurtured the Manchus and their predecessors, the Jurchens, for thousands of years. It is the sacred mountain in the hearts of the Manchu people. Since it is on the Eastern Tour, it must be worshiped.
Before the trip, Qixi, Bixue, and Evian were packing their luggage in the Nuan Pavilion. The three princesses sat next to the sixth brother's crib and watched the palace maids busy.
She first pinched Brother Six's feet for a long time, then reached out to touch Brother Six's head, and then pulled the lanugo on his head.
The sixth brother was holding a toy that the third princess had played with before. When he saw his sister's hand reaching out to touch his head, he reluctantly stepped back.
Unexpectedly, the strength was too great, and his small body found it difficult to balance. He suddenly fell on his back and fell into the quilt on the crib.
Ji Ling was sitting on the bedside with a plate of pastries in her hand. She was eating and instructing Qixi to pack things. In the blink of an eye, she saw the third princess pointing at her brother, touching her belly and laughing.
Next to her, Nanny Chen quickly helped Brother Six up.
With tears in his eyes, the sixth elder brother lay in his grandma's arms, glaring at his sister with an expression like a fierce little tiger.
Ji Ling laughed and scolded in a low voice: "Xi'er, don't tease your brother!"
The third princess put down her hand and sat down on the small bench next to her. After a while, she moved the bench step by step, just like riding a horse. When she reached Ji Ling's side, she reached out and picked up a piece of pastry from E Niang's plate.
He put it in his mouth, finished eating, took another piece, and stretched out his hand to greet Qilin.
Qilin was lying lazily in the dog cage. When he heard the voice of the third princess, he immediately got up and ran over.
The third princess broke the cake into pieces, spread it flatly in her hands, and fed it to Qilin.
Qilin was followed by two puppies, who also stumbled over at this time. Ji Ling saw that the third princess was about to feed the puppies, so she quickly stopped her: "They are still young, so they can't eat randomly."
The third princess looked up and asked her: "Mom, you said that when my brother grows up, he can play with me. When will he grow up?"
Ji Ling lowered his head and touched her little head, and said warmly: "If you don't tease him or toss him, your brother will grow faster. When he can run and jump, you will have a little friend."
The third princess twisted her body and sat on the bench for a while, thinking very seriously. Before she could say anything, Xiao Fenzi said at the door that Eunuch Su was here.
Ji Ling took the third princess's little hand and led her up to the outer hall. Sure enough, she saw Su Peisheng walking in quickly. He first saluted her and said hello to the third princess.
Ji Ling shouted.
Su Peisheng waved his sleeves, and four young eunuchs came in holding rewards.
Ji Ling was very surprised and asked him: "Isn't it time to leave for Changbai Mountain tomorrow? The emperor will reward you at this time..."
Su Peisheng smiled and said: "The Emperor's thoughts are always thinking of Concubine Chen, the third princess, and the sixth elder brother."
