The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 167 The Imperial Banquet
Yinzhen couldn't help laughing, seeing the shyness and panic on her face in a dumbfounded way: "Chanchan, what do you think I'm going to do? Hmm?"

Yanhua burned her ears so red, she hurriedly buried her head, her hands trembling slightly.

She was extremely ashamed and angry, the thought that flashed through her mind just now was that he wanted to do shameful things with her in this place where people come and go in broad daylight... She thought it must be because she has been browsing Huaying shopping malls lately That treasure that I went back, that's why I had such dirty thoughts in my mind.God, when did she become so impure?
Yinzhen laughed sullenly, took her hand and reached for the purse hanging on his waist.

It was a ruyi-shaped pouch, in stone blue color, with python patterns embroidered on it, and auspicious clouds inlaid with gold rims embroidered on the bottom of the pouch, hanging on the waist like a little python flying through the clouds.This is one of the many things Yanhua embroidered for Yinzhen at his request, seeing him hanging on his waist, she feels somewhat happy in her heart.

Yinzhen took her hand to hold the purse, Yanhua felt something hard inside, small, there were four of them.

She raised her head in bewilderment, her heart pounding, "Is this... an earring?"

Seeing that she was so smart, Yinzhen smiled even more, he let go of her hand, untied the purse, and stuffed it into her hand: "Open it and have a look."

Yan Hua obediently opened her purse, but complained ignorantly: "Master Belle, why is he so extravagant, I... some earrings make my ears itchy, so... Huh?"

"This earring is made of gold, and this one is made of silver. It shouldn't hurt your ears if you wear it. You can try it on first." Yinzhen pinched one of the earrings and showed it to Yanhua. The part of the earring hooked to the ear is shiny silver, and there is a drop-shaped red coral bead attached to it. The bead is only half the size of a fingernail, but the dark bead seems to be filled with love.

The other pair of gold earrings are made of pure gold, shaped like a flower, with a small piece of dark green gemstone wrapped in the middle, which suppresses the glittering luxury, making it look exquisite but unassuming.

Yanhua was happy in her heart, she just felt that the two pairs of earrings were too elegant and noble, she was reluctant to wear them: "I won't wear them today, after I return home, can I wear them every day for you?"

Yinzhen smiled lightly and scratched her nose: "Okay, it's up to you."

Many princes will be present later, it would be better if she didn't wear it, lest the emperor see it, and everyone might say that he spoils a concubine so much.

Yanhua carefully wrapped the two pairs of earrings with silk handkerchief layer upon layer, and then put them into her purse.

Seeing her cherished appearance, Yinzhen laughed and said, "What is this appearance for? If it is broken, I'll have someone make a new one for you. It won't cost much."

Yanhua gave him a coquettish look: "Master Baylor is really rich."

Yinzhen's eyes flashed, he held her face and lowered his head to kiss her.Yanhua's heart was beating wildly, and she nervously clenched the earrings wrapped in layers...

"Huh? Elder sister is here? Didn't we see you just now? I just saw the fourth brother in a pavilion over there, making out with a woman, I thought it was you. Let me just say, elder sister I have always been reserved, how could I behave like my fourth brother on such an occasion..." Bafujin walked to the gazebo by the lake, saw Mrs. Ulanara sitting inside talking with Hongshi and the others, and rushed forward to say hello.

As she spoke, she looked at Jiufujin behind her: "I told you that she wasn't my sister, but you still don't believe me."

Brother Jiu is very romantic, and even Jiu Fujin in the mansion is also a first-class beauty.Jiufujin has a gentle temperament, and when he heard Bafujin's words, he didn't say a word, but smiled politely.

Ulanara's eyes darkened, and she immediately opened the corners of her mouth and smiled: "You guys are late, come and sit and have a rest, I heard that after my son waits for Huang Ama to come, Brother Thirteen Don't miss out on the dragon boat race with Ten Princes."

In the sun-shaded corridor by the lake, the maids and eunuchs were still arranging tea, pastries, etc., so no one was seated yet.

Seeing that Ulanara didn't care, Bafujin said that she knew who the woman Yinzhen was kissing was, and after taking a look at Jiufujin, he didn't talk about that matter again.

The two children brought by Fujin quickly played with Hongshi. Seeing the figures of the children jumping around, Wulanara couldn't help feeling sad, and a look of loneliness flashed between her brows.

"Hahaha..." Not long after, all the princes and Fujin came over, talking and laughing.Ulanara also took Hongshi's hand and blended in with Jiufujin and the others.After everyone was seated, they heard a high-pitched voice shouting loudly: "The emperor is here~"

Everyone turned around and saw three canopy umbrellas slowly approaching, and three people came on chariots under the canopy.

When the emperor approached, everyone saluted in unison, and there were constant calls for greetings, which was quite magnificent.

Yanhua squatted behind Fujin, raised her eyes secretly, and followed an old man beside the emperor, with a majestic aura, the emperor respected her quite a bit, and felt disrespectful and puzzled.This old man is not the queen mother, because she has seen the queen mother before, and she does not look like this.The clothes worn by this old man are luxurious, but not as luxurious as those worn by the Empress Dowager.

"Mama~" All elder brothers and Fujin saluted the old man again, all with respectful expressions.

Yanhua wondered, Mamo means grandmother in Chinese, why would they call this person Mamo?It's just that she was curious but there was no one to ask, so she could only suppress the doubts in her heart and concentrate on watching Ulanara, for fear of missing her instructions.

After everyone was seated, the emperor said a few words, just like the head of the family in an ordinary family chatting with his family.

After exchanging pleasantries, the princes began to present birthday gifts, and what Yinzhen presented was a jade Buddha statue: "Huang Ama, my son invited the master master of Xiuyun Temple to consecrate this Buddha statue, and also recited the 49th day of July [-]." The scriptures, I wish the Emperor Ama stay healthy forever~"

Hearing this, Yanhua made up a few words in her mind: I thought it was really just to drive away evil spirits that I invited the master to recite sutras in the mansion for so long. It turned out that it was for this Buddha statue. She is as shrewd as a fox and killed two birds with one stone.

After the birthday greetings, the tenth elder brother couldn't wait to drag the thirteenth elder brother to the emperor: "Huang Ama, Mama, my son wants to have a dragon boat race with the thirteenth brother, please let the emperor agree." !"

Emperor Kangxi smiled kindly: "I knew you wouldn't be able to sit still. This time I'm going to row a dragon boat. I see, you can't row thirteen. Thirteen's equestrian skills are better than yours, and archery is better than yours." Great, poetry is better than yours..."

Hearing this, Elder Brother Shi interrupted him unconvinced: "Ama Huang, you are biased!" He roared out, and Shi Fujin, who was sitting on the side, covered his heart in fright, for fear that the emperor would be annoyed.

"...The thirteenth brother is smarter than my son. My son recognizes it. How can Huang Ama know that the thirteenth brother is also good at rowing dragon boats? Some people are born to be good at literature, and some are born to be good at martial arts. Those who are good at reading You may not be able to fight, and those who fight hard may not be able to read. My son can't read well, but it doesn't mean his son can't row a dragon boat, right?"

Although what Brother Ten said was vulgar, there was some truth to it.

The emperor smiled and looked at the old man next to him: "Ernie thinks the old ten can win the thirteen?"

The old man frowned and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's question is inappropriate, he is really biased. Whether you can win or not, you will know after watching them compete. Even if you can't win, you should be rewarded. The most important thing is to participate!"

The emperor nodded with a smile, and waved his hands: "Go, I want to see which of you can win. I will reward the winner more, and the loser will reward less. If you listen to Ernie, you will be rewarded." .”

"The minister thanked Huang Ama first." Thirteenth and tenth princes saluted and then went down.

When the two of them were preparing, Ba Fujin looked at Yan Hua who was sitting next to Fujin and asked: "This younger sister is very cute, elder sister, is she also from your family?"

Ulanara nodded lightly: "This is my sister."

"Oh? I haven't heard that my sister has a younger sister. Is this trying to imitate Ehuang Nvying?" Ba Fujin covered her mouth with a handkerchief and giggled.

Yanhua didn't know how the relationship between these two people was, seeing this, she just felt that it was not good to make Ulanara clan angry, and hurriedly saluted: "Eight Fujin, this servant is Gege from Sibeile's mansion, not Fujin's own sister. Fujin loves you , today I specially brought my slaves here to learn more about it.”

Hearing that she said that he was just a geek, Ba Fujin gave her a disdainful glance, and then stopped looking at her: "Sister is really generous."

Yanhua's face was embarrassed, but her heart was a little sour.It's true that she is a gege, but why does Fujin have to make trouble with such a lowly gege like her.And why bother to ridicule Sifujin?These people always do things that people can't understand.

"The thirteenth elder brother and the tenth elder brother are about to start." Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Jiu Fujin said softly.

Only then did Yanhua put away the sadness in her heart and followed everyone to look up at the lake.I saw that the thirteenth elder brother and the tenth elder brother both changed their clothes, which were quite similar to those of the other people on the dragon boat. They all tightened their waists, wrists and trouser legs.However, Elder Brother Shi wore an extra dark blue coat to make it easier for everyone to identify.He also imitated the appearance of other rowers, and tied a sweat towel on his head, which looked quite pleasing.

"Look at the bastard of old ten, haha!" Brother Jiu said softly, and everyone laughed along with him.

Elder Brother Ten didn't know what was said here, seeing everyone dancing and dancing, he just thought it was to cheer him up, and shouted to this side at the top of his voice: "I will definitely win Thirteen Brothers!"

"Haha, tenth brother, you'd better sit down, don't accidentally fall into the water!" Seeing him standing on another dragon boat and almost jumping up, Thirteen hurriedly reminded him loudly.

Hearing the words, Elder Ten deliberately shook his body a few times, pretending that he was about to fall into the water. Thirteen was frightened and screamed: "Brother Ten, be careful!"

Brother Ten covered his stomach and laughed loudly: "Haha! I lied to you!"
