The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 73 Nine Sons
After Yanhua was hugged by Yinzhen's waist, she couldn't help sticking to his chest.

She raised her head, wondering why he was so intimate all of a sudden, but Yinzhen just smiled with the corners of her lips curled up: "Chanchan, your birthday is coming soon, have you thought about what you want?"

Yanhua smiled shyly and slightly lowered her eyes.She had already figured it out, she didn't want anything else, as long as Yinzhen went to Wanfu Pavilion from time to time, so as to create more opportunities for Geng Shi to get close to him.

"Nothing else, I just hope that you will often visit Wanfu Pavilion in the future."

Seeing her shy look, Yinzhen pinched her chin and raised her face: "What kind of courtesy is this? I agree, and I will allow you to mention one more thing."

"Then... I haven't made up my mind yet, let me think about it, how about we get along with you in the future?"

He pursed his lips and chuckled: "Yes, but it can't be too long."

Yanhua's heart moved, she hugged his waist with a smile, and pressed her face against the solid parapet...

This time, because it was Yinzhen's birthday, Fujin sent people to make preparations very early, and on that day, the house was very lively with lights and festoons.

Yinzhen's weather was fine, so Fujin arranged for a troupe to set up a stage in the small garden in front of the main hall.Because Yinzhen was busy with court affairs during the day, after the court, he brought Hongyun into the palace to meet the emperor and concubine De, and he came back a bit late, so Fujin asked the theater to sing a song first. The play and everyone listened to each other.

Geng has been missing, Yanhua knew that she must be preparing a song and dance for Yinzhen to watch, so she didn't bother her.

Today, because the crown prince and several other princes are going to attend Sibeile's birthday banquet, the layout of the mansion is much more grand than before.Yan Hua had never seen such a grand occasion before, and it was a novelty when she saw it, but it was novel.It's just that she also restrained herself, and didn't show the wonder in her heart.

At about Mo Shen Shi, Yinzhen took Hongyun back to the mansion, and when he saw the side Fujin, he slightly praised: "Hongyun's book is not bad, just work harder in the future, Huang Ama is now My son praised him, but remember not to be proud, you need to work harder."

After hearing this, Fujin smiled so much that his brows and eyes curled up, and he just covered his mouth and said happily, "Master Belle, this poor concubine knows, Yun'er is quite hardworking on weekdays, and this poor concubine will let my husband teach me more."

Fujin placed the theater stage in the small garden, and only waited for everyone to listen to operas and drink some small tea in a big pavilion in the small garden. After the dinner was ready, they moved into the main hall for dinner.

Elder Brother Thirteen was the first to arrive, followed by two servants, holding a tall stack of gift boxes in their hands, and he didn't know what was inside: "Sister-in-law, where are these things?" He pointed The things that the two servants were holding in their arms yelled when they saw Fujin.

"Uncle Thirteen came really early, Lord Baylor just came back for a while. Let's have some tea here, I'll send someone to urge him." Fujin smiled slightly and sent someone to take the two stacks of gift boxes, He signaled them to send it to Yonghua Hall first.

"Hey, wait." Seeing that the maidservants were going to take away all the things he brought, Shisan hurriedly stopped them and took down one of the boxes, "I have to give these two separately, my little one." Where is sister-in-law?"

Fujin was slightly taken aback, and immediately thought that today was also Yanhua's birthday, so he smiled knowingly, and pointed to the stage not far away: "She's listening to an opera over there."

Thirteen clicked on the picture, and walked over with the gift box in hand.

Side Fujin Li Shi, Song Gege, Wu Gege, Geng Gege, and Yanhua were all sitting in front of the stage to listen to the play. Before Yinzhen came back, the play was singing, and now it is about to end, and Yinzhen just happened to be going back to the bedroom to change Dressed in auspicious clothes, it will take a while for the princes to come over, so I acquiesced to them listening to the play first.

"My sisters-in-law are so excited, what play are you listening to?"

"Uncle Shisan is here." Because they had stayed in the mansion for many years, Cian Fujin and Song Gege got up and greeted Shisan, and then both greeted him to sit down. After Shisan exchanged greetings, they went straight to Yanhua's side.

"Sister-in-law, it's your birthday today. I wrote a picture as a congratulatory gift. Don't dislike it." As Shisan said, he handed over the gift box in his hand, and Yingxiu, who was standing beside Yanhua, hurriedly I took it.

"Thank you, brother Shisan, for thinking about it." Yanhua was listening to the drama, and she was flattered when she heard Shisan came to give a gift.

"Yo! Thirteenth Uncle is really elegant. Huang Ama has praised you for your good handwriting. Today, I must show us your handwriting!" Seeing Thirteenth Elder Brother sending calligraphy and Yanhua, however, did not dare to speak harshly, after all, the object was the thirteenth prince, and she did not speak casually.

After hearing this, Yanhua looked at Shisan, saw him nodding his head slightly, and opened the box.

The words had already been rolled up with a scroll, Yanhua loosened the red silk thread tied outside, and signaled Ying Xiu and Lingxi to stretch the scroll.

Above is a poem by Su Shi, and the name of the poem is Dingfeng.

Yanhua glanced at the poem, her heart warmed, and she happily thanked Shisan again: "Thank you, Brother Thirteen!"

It was her favorite lyric, she glanced at everyone and then slowly chanted:

"Don't listen to the sound of beating leaves in the forest, why not scream and walk slowly. Bamboo sticks and straw shoes are light than horses, who is afraid? A cloud of mist and rain is your life. The spring wind blows and wakes up, slightly cold, but the hills are slanted to meet you. Looking back. In a bleak place, when you go back, there will be neither wind nor rain."

She remembered that night when she was drunk, she seemed to have recited the first two lines, thinking that elder brother Thirteen was really a careful person, he could remember it, and wrote this poem as a gift to her.

Yanhua carefully looked at the handsome and elegant font, and she was full of admiration in her heart.His handwriting is like his own, and Thirteen's handwriting is as chic and flying as he is, rising and falling freely, the thick part is as vigorous as a flying dragon, and the delicate part is as soft as floating clouds.Next to the words, I also drew a few bamboo sticks casually, which is free and easy, and quite beautiful.

"Thirteenth brother, you came early." At this time, Yinzhen, who had changed his clothes, came over and saw that everyone was looking at a painting, so he also moved forward to take a look.

"Master Baylor, take a look at the calligraphy that Uncle Shisan gave to my sister, it's really beautiful!" Seeing Yinzhen coming, Song Gege approached him a few steps with crooked eyebrows, and said softly beside him .

Yinzhen looked at the copybook, read the poem on it silently, and nodded approvingly: "This poem suits Thirteenth Brother's personality quite well. Chanchan, since you accepted this calligraphy, you can You have to learn the open-mindedness in this word."

Yanhua secretly curled her lips helplessly, and muttered softly: "I'm preaching again, why do you always treat me like a child?" But she didn't dare to speak loudly, she only muttered for herself, she When she looked up again, Yinzhen was staring straight at her, but she hurriedly averted her eyes guiltily.

It was already winter, and the sky was getting dark early, so Fujin ordered the lanterns to be lit.Yan Hua looked at the lanterns leading here, and felt that they were extremely beautiful, and she only thought that all this was prepared for her, and she was enjoying herself.

"Sister-in-law Si spent a lot of thought! Look at the layout of this mansion, it's so beautiful!"

A group of gorgeously dressed people walked over following the guidance of the lanterns.Yan Hua only saw that walking in the middle was a person with a warm complexion and refined brows.Lingxi told her that that person was the eighth elder brother, and the person who spoke just now was the tenth elder brother who was following him.

The pavilion was surrounded by high screens, and there was a charcoal fire in the pavilion, so it was not cold in the pavilion.Seeing that the people were almost there, Yinzhen asked them to drink some tea in the pavilion first: "The prince said that he will come today, so let's order two plays first, and wait while you watch."

When everyone was chatting and watching the play, the eldest brother, the third elder brother, the fifth elder brother and the seventh elder brother also rushed over with congratulatory gifts.

All of a sudden, many princes gathered in Sibeile Mansion.Yanhua secretly glanced around the princes talking and laughing at Yanyan, all of them have extraordinary bearing.Especially the eighth elder brother, ninth elder brother, thirteenth, fourteenth and her Yinzhen, either elegant or talented, compared to other princes, their bearing is more outstanding, she took a closer look at these princes, She only felt that Yinzhen and Thirteenth Brother looked more kind.

Kind, now in her eyes, Yinzhen's cold appearance is also very kind.

Suddenly, an unfathomable gaze shot over, and when Yanhua sensed that someone was looking at her, she subconsciously looked at it according to the feeling.Seeing Brother Nine looking at her expressionlessly, with uncontrollable sharpness in his eyes, Yanhua was startled, and hurriedly bowed her mouth and nodded in greeting, then hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look any further.

"Why isn't Brother Prince coming? I'm so hungry!" At this moment, Elder Brother Shi's stomach suddenly groaned, and he clutched his stomach in dissatisfaction and yelled.

When the princes heard his stomach growling, they burst into laughter: "The tenth brother is always so genuine!"

"Then let's all go in and wait. Since the tenth brother is hungry, let's eat something to fill his stomach first." Yinzhen slightly bent his mouth and waved his hands as a gesture of invitation.

Yinzhen greeted everyone to enter the hall, while he himself walked behind.

Just when he was about to follow in, Wei Changan hurried over: "Master Belle, this slave has something important to report!"

Seeing his hurried appearance, Yinzhen frowned lightly: "What's the matter?"

Wei Changan looked around, and when Yinzhen saw this, he knew that it was something that should not be easily revealed to others, so he took two quick steps and grabbed Shisan who had just entered: "Brother Thirteen, I have to leave for a while, you And greet them for me, if you need anything, just tell your fourth sister-in-law."

"Okay! Fourth brother, let's go!" Thirteen didn't ask much, just nodded his head in response, and when he saw Wei Changan walking away with Yinzhen, he just frowned, then raised his eyebrows immediately, Shaking off the doubts in his mind, he turned around and walked in, "Brother Ten! Don't be too busy eating, how about we try to drink first?"
