Four hundred and fortieth IX blowing face is not cold
After saying these words, Ulanala's expression turned a little confused. She stepped forward to hold Geng's hand, patted the back of her hand, and whispered with a hint of affection: "Hongzhou is a
Good boy, compared to Niu Hulu’s elder brother, I have always loved the fifth elder brother more.”
Concubine Yu did not raise her head.
There was a hint of incitement and temptation in Ulanara's voice, and she said in an inaudible voice: "Fei Yu, my two elder brothers have grown up, but the emperor is dragging his feet day by day not to be crowned king. You said that the emperor... is waiting.
what"
Yu Fei clenched her teeth and her whole body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The queen raised her hand to hold her temples, and said with a faint look on her face: "I have never thought that since Concubine Dachen was favored back then, she has been favored for so many years, and the emperor has no choice.
She has not even been promoted to a position in the harem after being a beautiful girl! She is really obsessed with Concubine Chen and cannot live without her. It is just a pain for you old sisters who have endured for many years."
Concubine Yu's face turned green and white, and she said slowly: "The queen is joking, the concubine Chen has a very noble life, how can I envy her!"
The queen said softly: "I just don't know... If Concubine Chen gives birth to another prince, and she and the sixth elder brother Hongxin are united, in this harem, it won't take ten years, but there will still be room for the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother to gain a foothold."
Land?"
Concubine Yu said no more.
…
In February, the days are short, and in a blink of an eye, it is already the end of March in the eleventh year of Yongzheng's reign.
It's almost Qingming Festival.
In the Old Summer Palace, soft yellows and tender greens fill the garden with spring scenery. In the spring courtyard of Tiandi Family, all kinds of rare flowers sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs fill the whole courtyard.
Qilin squinted his eyes and lay lazily under the flowers. The fallen flowers on the steps were like snow, and a lot of pollen fell on his body. He was too lazy to shake it off. The scent of his body attracted two blue-spotted butterflies to fly up and down around him.
.
The puppies that Qilin gave birth to had long outgrown him. Ji Ling gave two to Zhang Guiren, and the other two were raised in the spring of Tiandi Family - the sixth elder brother also liked it very much, and the third princess
The two siblings sometimes fought over each other to keep them. When the sixth elder brother went to the study room, the two puppies naturally became the third princess's pets.
Ji Ling wore a royal concubine's regular clothes, and the light yellow colored glaze hairpin in her hair reflected a warm light in the sun. She slowly walked down the steps and almost stepped on the unicorn's tail. Fortunately, she noticed it out of the corner of her eye.
Qilin looked up and saw that his master was coming, so he moved a little to the side. Ji Ling sat down on the handrail next to the steps and reached out to touch Qilin's furry head.
Qilin tilted his head and rubbed his head in his master's hand.
It can no longer walk now. Even if it stands, it will sometimes pant for no reason after standing for a long time. Ji Ling is very sad and has people from the dog room come to see it several times - they all say that the dog is not sick.
No pain, just old.
Just like human beings, as we get older, our legs and feet become less flexible, our eyesight becomes blurred, and all body functions deteriorate.
In fact, they didn't need to tell Ji Ling that Qilin wouldn't be able to stay with her for much longer: when Qilin first came to her, she was just a little noble person. Qilin was lively and active, and no matter where he was, he would just hear Ji Ling's call.
If it hears the sound, it will rush over immediately; if it smells the fragrance of food, it will also rush over with its tail wagging.
But now, Ji Ling brought delicious snacks to it, and Qilin just lay there wilting, not even bothering to look at it.
For it, "getting up to eat" has become a very energy-consuming activity.
Another thing is that Qilin started to lose his teeth. One of the teeth was so loose that it fell off when he was chewing bones. Later, Ji Ling did not dare to let anyone feed Qilin any harder food. He would often eat half soup and half meat.
The ground meat is simmered very well, and it is specially torn into small pieces. Basically, it can be eaten directly without any effort in chewing.
Qilin stayed quietly under his master's hands. He didn't make a sound for a long time. He just made a coquettish sound in his throat. He raised his front paws and struggled to climb onto Ji Ling's lap. Ji Ling stretched out his two hands and pulled him away.
He lifted it up, held it in his arms, lowered his head and kissed the top of his head heavily.
Suddenly, a sparkling drop of water appeared on Qilin's furry face.
Ji Ling's heart trembled: Qilin was crying.
She suddenly remembered a saying she had heard before: when a dog is about to leave its owner, it will cry silently.
She hugged Qilin tightly.
The third princess was obsessed with boating during these days, and she had to take a boat wherever she went. Fortunately, there were waterways everywhere in the Old Summer Palace, which could fully meet her requirements. The back lake was not big enough, so the third princess ordered people to move the boat all the way to Fuhai.
among.
Many of the buildings in the circle next to Fuhai are still under repair, and there are currently no concubines living there. If you get tired of sitting on the cruise ship, you can always find a small dock to dock and take a tour on the shore, which is not interesting.
.
There are not many buildings in the Old Summer Palace, but there are many small piers. Most of the craftsmen who built the garden thought that the nobles would use boats instead of sedan chairs to travel everywhere.
The third princess pulled the Ji Ling boat, and the Qilin was also put in a basket and taken out.
The basket was made of soft rattan, with a tic-tac-toe pattern on the bottom. Ji Ling was afraid that Qilin would be pinched, so he had someone put a special quilt underneath, and a small bone-shaped pillow stuffed with cotton.
, it’s both a toy and a tool—Qilin can just put his little head on it.
The third princess carried the basket with her own hand and held Ji Ling's hand with the other, and the mother and daughter went on a cruise.
She bounced all the way. Fortunately, just before boarding the boat, Ji Ling lowered her head and saw that the unicorn in the basket was about to be thrown out. She quickly snatched it with her hands.
The Tiandi family walked to the northeast in spring and connected with the back door of Jiuzhou Qingyan Hall. In the morning, Yinzhen was not there - he was attending court in the Zhengda Guangming Hall in front.
Jiuzhou Qingyan Hall and Tiandi Family Spring share a pier. Follow the path behind Jiuzhou Qingyan Hall and go around a mountain screen before exiting.
As soon as they arrived at the pier, the dazzling rays of the sun blinded both mother and daughter. The third princess raised her hands to shield her eyes, and pulled her mother's sleeves to cover them.
Xiaofenzi had already prepared the arrangements, and the boat was waiting. Two young eunuchs, one supporting the boat, and the other holding the bow on the shore, saw Ji Ling coming, and both of them saluted: "Slave to the noble concubine Chen."
Please say hello, may your Majesty be blessed!"
As soon as the little eunuch holding down the bow of the boat released his legs and the boat slowly moved away, he quickly held it down again. Seeing this, Qixi helped Ji Ling and prepared to get on the boat.
Ji Ling shook his head, looked around with interest, and said, "There's no rush."
A group of slaves stood on the pier with their hands down, quietly waiting for the imperial concubine to enjoy the lake view.
The third princess was beside her and put her arms around Ji Ling's waist: "Mother, are you cold?"
The daughter stretched out her arms and tried her best to wrap around Ji Ling.
Ji Ling touched her daughter's cheek and said with a smile: "Xi'er, have you forgotten what the poem says? The clothes are wet with apricot blossom rain..."
The third princess smiled and shouted loudly: "The willow wind will not cool your face!!"
Ji Ling suddenly understood something - why could the poet write a poem like "The wind from the willows does not blow cold on my face"?
What is not cold is not just the warm spring breeze and the warm spring sun.
There is also a human heart where the years are leisurely and quiet, and everything goes smoothly and comfortably.
