The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 171 Flowering

Seeing that the emperor no longer pursued what brother Jiu said just now, Shisi quietly wanted to return to his seat.

Unexpectedly, the emperor's eyes were sharp and he noticed it immediately.

Fourteen was helpless, and sighed: "Huang Ama, my son wants to come and bloom immediately. It's just that I haven't prepared the things to be used in advance, I'm afraid I won't be able to perform."

"Hey? Just tell me what the fourteenth brother needs, and I'll let someone prepare it. It's still early for dinner, so make it in time!" The prince hurriedly said something in order not to disappoint the emperor.

"This is also easy to handle, Prince, I need..." Fourteen whispered in his ear and explained everything he needed, and the Prince's expression was alternately surprised and sometimes puzzled.

After he finished speaking, the prince wondered: "Fourteenth brother, what do you need these things for? It will bloom immediately, and I can understand the petals for you. What's the use of other things?"

The fourteenth brother raised his eyebrows: "The prince just needs to prepare, the answer will be revealed later."

"This... I have to ask Huang Ama. Huang Ama, the fourteenth brother needs a bow and arrow to bloom immediately, but he is allowed?" The prince turned around respectfully and looked at the emperor.

Curious, the emperor glanced at Fourteen, and saw that his brows were filled with the unique unruliness of a young man, and nodded slowly: "Quite!"

Fourteenth spoke again at this time: "Huang Ama, I have to borrow someone from my fourth brother."

Hearing this, Yinzhen frowned slightly, and looked at Fourteen in puzzlement: "Brother Fourteen wants to borrow someone from me?" After that, he glanced at Yanhua, Fourteen's flowering immediately had something to do with horses, could it be He wants to borrow...

Sure enough, Yinzhen had no time to think about it, and heard Fourteen speak heartily: "Huang Ama, I want to borrow his little Gege from my fourth brother to complete this flowering immediately. I can't do it alone, so I just gave birth to it." Fourth brother's little Gege is a good equestrian, so he is the best candidate." After Sisi finished speaking, he calmly looked at Yanhua who was next to Ulanara.

"Oh? The fourth son's Ge Ge is here too? Where is it? I didn't know that there is still a Ge Ge who is good at equestrian skills in the fourth son's house." The emperor was curious and looked over with Fourteen's eyes.

Yanhua was originally eating snacks with relish, and didn't pay much attention to the movements of the princes at all.She thought, at this royal feast, the princes, Fujin, grandsons, and granddaughters are all there, and she is alone, just coming to join in the fun and see the world, what will happen to her.

From time to time, Wulanara talked to the eighth and nineth Fujin next to him, and Yanhua took some cakes to eat from time to time when she was bored.The mung bean cake made by the imperial dining room is really delicious, it melts on the tip of the tongue with a light bite, it is sweet and rustling, and Yanhua is full of praise.The Fujins around didn't know her very well, so no one talked to her, so they felt comfortable eating.

When the emperor and princes followed her figure, she just bit into a piece of mung bean cake.

She didn't understand what happened at all, because she was sitting far away from the emperor, and she didn't hear their conversation clearly.But when she saw everyone looking this way, she also looked to the right, but found that the people on the right were all looking to the left.She felt a "thump" in her heart, and felt that something was wrong, so she quickly chewed a few times and swallowed the mung bean cake in her mouth.

"Is this Sibeile's little Gege? The emperor told Gege to come over, Gege, please come with the servants!" Liang Jiugong, the chief eunuch, walked straight to Yanhua, was puzzled when he saw her delicate face, and had a vague impression of her .

Yanhua couldn't react, how could the emperor want to see her?Could it be because of the prince just now?
Ulanara was worried, and took a look at Yanhua: "Go, I'll be with you." Then he stood up.

Yan Hua nodded and followed quickly.

Ulanara was originally worried that Yanhua would behave inappropriately, and that she would be disrespectful.After taking her to the salute, I realized that she was very calm and calm, and her eyes couldn't help showing a look of approval.

Yinzhen frowned and sighed, he didn't expect that the first time he took Yanhua to participate in such an imperial banquet, things would come to her one after another...or him?

"Brother Fourteen said you are good at equestrianism?" The emperor looked at Yan Hua who was kneeling on the ground with interest, seeing her petite figure, he seemed a little unbelieving.

"Returning to the emperor, this 'equestrian skill' slave does not dare to be a servant, but the slave's equestrian skill is only fair." Yanhua lowered her head, her mouth was full of the fragrance of mung bean cake, aftertaste for a long time.

"Hehe...it's still okay, we'll see later. Brother Fourteen wants you to help him perform Immediate Blossom, would you like it?" The emperor was in a very good mood, looking at the little girl with a pleasing expression, Just like the elders in an ordinary family, "Get up, don't kneel down."

"Thank you, my servant!" Yan Hua stood up cautiously, thinking that like a father like a son, he is the emperor, how dare he say no to asking her like this?I had no choice but to nod my head in response, "Brother Fourteen doesn't think this servant is stupid, and this servant is willing. However, this servant is afraid that my lack of equestrian skills will taint the eyes of the emperor, mama and elder brother Fujin. I hope that the emperor will not blame this servant at that time. ..." She paused for a moment, not knowing what to call Aunt Su Ma, so she respectfully addressed her as Mamo.

"Haha...you are clever, okay, I don't blame you, just cooperate with Fourteenth Brother later!"

After everything was ready, since it was almost time for dinner, it was getting cold by the lake, so the emperor took everyone to a grass field.

In Changchun Garden, there are water pavilions, terraces, grasslands and hills.

Aunt Su Ma wanted to leave early, but when she heard the equestrian show, she remembered the scene of riding a horse galloping across the grassland when she was a child.

Because it was a performance that I thought of on the spur of the moment, there was no time to prepare the chairs and stools beside the grass. Only a few chairs were prepared for the emperor, Lagu Su Ma and others to sit in. Most of the rest of the people stood on the grass and watched.

Five feet away in front of everyone, they were facing two large balls made of thin oiled paper, which were bulging and full of things.

"Drive!" "Drive!" With two shouts, Shisi and Yanhua galloped away from the left and the other from the right to the middle. Everyone was surprised because the horses almost collided with each other. He and Yanhua pulled the reins and leaned out, and the horse carried them past in a dangerously dangerous way.

The moment they got their bodies wrong, both Shisi and Yanhua grabbed the reins and got off their horses towards the side where everyone could see, and scooped up two big greased paper balls into their arms.

"Yu~" There was an exclamation from the crowd, people who had never seen Yanhua riding a horse were amazed by her agile figure!Even the prince thought she was much more stunning than when she was seen at the racecourse that time!

Before they finished admiring, Shisi and Yanhua both reined in their horses and turned around hastily. Then, when everyone didn't know why, Yanhua took the lead in throwing the oil paper ball in her arms diagonally upwards.Because of her weak strength, her oil paper ball is smaller than Fourteen's one, but fortunately, the things inside are not heavy, so she can throw it high.

After the oil paper ball she threw flew into the air, Shisi cleanly threw the oil paper ball in her hand towards Yanhua's.

"Bang~" The two oil paper balls collided, and the thin oil paper was smashed, and many petals flew out from the two oil paper balls, yellow, red, white, and pink, floating down on the top of the two of them, as if they were fragrant The flower petal rain is coming!

"Wow!" I don't know which Fujin exclaimed, and then it caused layers of unstoppable exclamation!

"Okay!" The emperor couldn't help shouting, and took the lead in applauding.

Before the performance was over, Fourteen gave Yanhua a thumbs up, then shook his head to signal her to continue.

Yanhua swallowed dryly, feeling a little timid in her heart.The next thing to do is a little dangerous, if it is in Sibeile Mansion, she will directly refuse, but this is in Changchun Garden, and the emperor wants to see it, so she dare not refuse, so she has to bite the bullet.

Before everyone's applause stopped, Yanhua's horse ran happily again.This time, he ran diagonally into the distance, and a small oil paper ball was slapped on the ground, all of which were filled with petals.

Yanhua's expression was extremely serious at this time, when she saw the first oil paper ball, she grabbed the horse's rein and leaned down, and then threw it up into the sky with all her strength.

With a sound of "咻~", a stream of air roared and flew over the sky behind the horse, and with a sound of "Pa!", the oil paper ball was punctured, and the petals fell down!
Fourteen is holding a bow, pulling a wooden arrow all the way to shoot oiled paper balls!

Yanhua was afraid of being accidentally injured by the wooden arrow, so she simply didn't turn over on the horse's back, and directly pulled the rein tightly, stepped on the stirrup with one foot, and hooked the saddle with the other foot, and the whole person was leaning against the other side of the horse all the time. One side, the opposite side from Fourteen!
All the way she just picks up oil paper balls and throws them up!Luckily there are only eight of them!Otherwise, how could her body last so long on horseback!
After the "Blooming Immediately", she didn't know whether she was scared or hot, but she only felt a thin layer of sweat on her back!When she was riding back on the horse, she hurriedly wiped the sweat off her forehead with her cuff!

"Little Gege's equestrian skills are really good." Fourteenth elder brother put away his bow, and when he rode back with her, he raised his chin and praised.

Yanhua glared at him unhappily, feeling her legs and feet were a little weak: "Brother Fourteen is too famous! In the future, don't think about slaves for such things. The blessings of slaves are small, so I can't help tormenting like this!"

Seeing her showing her face to him, Shisi froze for a moment, quickly put away the smile on her face, and stopped smiling at her.

"Haha! Brother Si, I didn't know that the daughter of Niu Hulu's family is so good at riding a horse!"

"Huang Ama has won the award, she is just a little brave." Yin Zhen was modest, and finally let go of the sweat in her hands.

"This little Gege is really good. I also loved riding horses when I was a child. Seeing the demeanor of little Gege on the horse, I can't help but think of the scene when I was a child!" Aunt Su Ma watched the joint performance of the two "" It will bloom immediately", and I can't help but praise again and again.

She looked down, touched her body, and finally took off a jade bracelet from her wrist: "This is the first bracelet given to me by the Empress Dowager Zhaosheng before I entered the palace. , let's take it." La Aunt Su Ma looked at Yan Hua who got off the horse lovingly, as if seeing her childhood self, she was very happy in her heart.

Yanhua was overwhelmed by the flattery, she glanced at Yinzhen, and seeing Yinzhen nodding, she hurriedly took two steps closer and knelt down to take the jade bracelet from a court lady: "Xie Mama! The maidservant is too late to be happy, how could she dislike it."
