Cyan Lotus of Space Clearance

Chapter 157 Palace Palace

"Concubine Yu and Concubine Ning are here to visit."

"Please come in quickly." Geng put the soup bowl on the plate, and someone immediately came up to put it away.Seeing Mrs. Wu coming in, she stood up to greet her and said, "Why is sister coming here when you are free?"

Wu took off his cloak and handed it to the female officer next to him, and sat down with her with a smile, "I'm bored in Jingren Palace by myself, so I came to see my sister."

"Where's Lan Xin, didn't I accompany you?" Mrs. Wu loved this little daughter like something, she was careful and cared for her, and never took her eyes off her.

"Watching the fireworks with her brothers and sisters, I'm not wronged if I hold her back at such a rare time?" Wu took the hot tea and took a sip slowly. "Has Hong Zhou also followed?"

"I can't usually stay in the house well, let alone this time." Geng's smile reveals a trace of helplessness and pampering, his son is like a monkey, active and clever, and his mouth doesn't know what to say. Whoever learned it has a bunch of fallacies, and I often can't explain him. "Fortunately, I have nothing to worry about with his brothers taking care of me."

"Yeah." Wu said with a faint smile, "The elder brothers and the princess have a good relationship." The emperor is still very foresighted. It is good for children to get along with each other more and affectionately. He is also indifferent, even if he has a plan, he can be transformed into invisible under his beating guidance.Moreover, the empress with such a heart is also a blessing to all the concubines, at least it is a great blessing to me, otherwise, with my character, I might have been lost in the endless battles, where would I have these years of stable life and my current status... …

She will never forget the horrible feeling after losing her first child, resentment, unwillingness, despair, despair... Without the queen and Geng, maybe she would have died long ago.

Geng glanced at her. In this harem, Wu is probably the one who is most grateful to the empress. As for himself, Geng thought, he was more of a succumb to the situation... However, such a life is not bad .

"What has my sister been doing lately?"

"I begged a lot of seeds for vegetables and fruits from the queen, and opened a few plots in Jingren Palace, and I'm going to plant them when the weather warms up!"

"Farming?" Geng was taken aback, "I thought my sister would say which good book I read again."

"Books are also for reading, but it's good to grow vegetables in your free time, and you can harvest after exercising to pass the time." Especially when working with my daughter, it's messy and fun. No wonder the empress likes planting so much, It is not the same joy as reading a book.

The deep palace is boring, and a son can't compare to a caring daughter. The distance between the palaces is no more than that of Prince Yong's mansion, and it's not tiring to go to and fro. !Geng sighed: "I heard that the second elder brother and the third elder brother sent a lot of flowers to Yongshou Palace to pass the time for Concubine Qi, but I didn't expect that even you... It seems that I have to find something to plant." !"

"Sister, doesn't she practice sword every day?" Wu looked at her with a smile. Geng's habit was often ridiculed by other female relatives, because it was too similar to the emperor's habit of practicing martial arts every morning, and was accused of flattery.Geng Shi also said that he would teach her, but Wu Shi thought he couldn't fall in love like reading a book, and he couldn't persevere day in and day out like her, so he refused.

"However, health-preserving swordsmanship, no matter how slow it is, only takes up half an hour every day." Geng said disapprovingly, "At least you still have the Guo family and the Chen family, and you can still pass some time. Unfortunately, I want to sneak out the door." It's too far away...Could it be possible to visit the Imperial Garden every day?" The dynamic activities are more attractive to her, like female red needlework, if she is not thinking about her beloved son, she will not be able to persist for a long time.Thinking of this, Geng couldn't help sighing secretly, the empress's embroidery is also a masterpiece, the robes made by the emperor, the fourth elder brother, the seventh elder brother and the fifth princess every year look more exquisite than those made by others.

"Is it still difficult for you to escape? Isn't it time for the draft again in a few months?"

"That's right. It's just that I may live in Chengqian Palace here. Even if I live here, I don't know if that person is safe..." The tone was disappointed.

"Just joke around when you're free, and dare to come and disturb them when you're bored." Mrs. Wu took it easy, guarded this position and raised her daughter, and she was satisfied with a good marriage.As for the newcomers, they can't stop, just like she treats Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Chen, when she is in a good mood, she listens to their complaints, and when she is in a bad mood, she closes the door to read her books and do sewing.

Listen to what she said, Gunn too?He couldn't help laughing, "That's right, we're just watching a show."

Except for Geng, who made up his mind not to cause trouble, Wu, who was content, and Li, who was calm, Nian soon discovered that none of the concubines of the same rank paid any attention to her provocations, and she couldn't act alone. Nail's eyeliner, which was wooed or bought off, didn't play a big role for a while, so he had to turn his eyes to the concubines depressedly.

It's a pity that she intends to show her arrogance as the youngest and most beautiful concubine, but others don't accept it. Song Shi, who is older than her, also looks like a tortoise shell, so she has nowhere to start. The Wanyan family and the Jia family are not only jealous of her leaping to become a concubine, but also jealous of her natal family in the first-class government. Although they don't offend her, they understand who they should get close to and stand in line with - this palace, the biggest Who can be bigger than the emperor and queen?The emperor loves the empress very much, so he was stupid to be the rafter in his early years.Besides, just look at Mrs. Xita. This concubine Dun looks weak and weak on the outside, but she has a lot of scheming and tricks. She took the initiative to show her favor to these concubines?I'm afraid he will come up with some other idea... So, every day, he dresses up neatly and goes to the Changchun Palace to pay his respects, hoping to see that Long Yanwai has less than three points of energy to deal with Nianshi, and this three points is all on guard.

Nian was angry and had no choice but to plan slowly.

After finally passing the first day of junior high school, when it was the second day of junior high school, Su Yierha and Yinzhen ushered in the famous second feast of thousands of seniors in history.

The weather is peaceful and the people's livelihood is prosperous.This is the affirmation of the new emperor's 60-year reign as the Supreme Emperor Kangxi.

Thanks to the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs who have experienced it once, the Qing government's institutional action capabilities during this period were still very "powerful". At the beginning, Su Yierha was still interested in understanding the details, but later on he only cooperated according to the general rules.There was no way, as a queen who put on a show, her time was also very tight.

The scale of the banquet of thousands of seniors is so large that the number of people participating in the banquet is no more than that of ordinary banquets, so the time and number of banquets have to be held separately.

On the second day of the first lunar month, in front of the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, a banquet was held for 65 people over the age of 680, including Ministers of Civil and Military Affairs of the Eight Banners, officials, and retired officials.On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, three hundred and forty people over the age of 65 were invited to a feast for ministers of civil and military affairs of the Han nationality and those who were dismissed from official positions.Kangxi was very happy, and wrote a poem "The Banquet of Thousand Old Men" on the spot.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the series of banquets stopped.Yinzhen knew that she had been tired for months, so after the Lantern Festival banquet in the palace, he avoided the palace people and brought only a few guards to protect him and her and went out of the palace gate secretly to enjoy the lanterns.

The Lantern Festival is a rare festival when women come out to enjoy themselves in the boudoir. Although they come out a little late, the streets are still crowded with people, carrying things in the hands of tourists, hanging under the eaves of each house, on temple poles, and on treetops. Yes, on the stalls... All kinds of exquisite lanterns swayed like a rainbow in the dark night, and occasionally I heard the sound of fireworks going off, making a lot of noise, which seemed a bit like a fiery tree and silver flowers.

Su Yierha knows that Yinzhen is also tired. In addition to the new year's banquets, he also has to meet with the local kings and Taiji, and deal with government affairs... In the midst of his busy schedule, he actually took her out to relax, which surprised her. I am grateful. "Let's go there and have a bowl of glutinous rice balls." She pointed to a stall selling Yuanxiao set up by two old couples.

Yinzhen looked over and saw that the stall was set up by two couples in their mid-fifties. Their clothes were clean and tidy, different from ordinary vendors. Under the moonlight, they felt that Xiaolianhua's words were extremely warm and gentle, and his heart moved. He responded, and took her hand and walked over.

After all, it is the emperor's white dragon fish costume, and Su Yierha is not new to the world. No matter how lively this ancient festival is, it is not as popular as the modern Spring Festival Gala... She was a little perplexed, but she held her little hand tightly Her big palm made her regain her mood quickly. It is good to feel the festive atmosphere under the emperor's feet this day, so she persuaded Yinzhen to return to the palace.

Yinzhen saw that it was indeed late at night, and the guards around him were always on guard, sighed inwardly, looked at Su Yierha's considerate smile, and said: "I will take you out for a walk when I have time later. "The voice is deep and mellow, but also contains a trace of majesty and coolness, touching the soul.

This is a royal promise.

I didn't expect to have such a reward when I was old, Su Yierha responded sweetly: "Okay." Regardless of whether it is realized or not, this moment is very beautiful.

She was a little tired of the continuous banquets, interviews with the wives, and palace affairs. She wanted to mention to him that the powers should be divided between the four concubines and let them assist in the palace affairs. You have to wait until you have a thorough understanding of the affairs in this palace. It will be difficult to let go now and wait for an accident in the future to clean up.

After returning to the palace, she led Chun Yu and others to recover slowly, and while she was busy directing the maids and eunuchs to plow the land to plant vegetables and fruit trees, she prepared for Kangxi's Longevity Festival.

Because of the banquet of thousands of seniors, Kangxi had already had a message for Yinzhen and Su Yierha, only to let their brothers come to Changchun Garden to present a birthday gift, and then find a time to have a meal in Changchun Garden.

Both Yinzhen and Su Yierha don't like extravagance, and they are really relieved to hear that, but although it is simple, it is the first Longevity Day of the Supreme Emperor, and it should be held warmly and happily to please the old man .Seeing this situation, the Hongye brothers begged them for this errand, and they strongly promised to hold a birthday banquet that would make Huang Mafa happy... Su Yierha saw that they were dedicated to sharing their worries, and Hongyun and Hongye had always been conscientious in their work. If you don't understand the rules, let them go.

On the day of the banquet, they found out that they had found a group of six or seven-year-old children with thick heads and thick brains to dance a dance of presenting birthday peaches, and invited a few funny-looking storytellers to perform a Suyierha used to amuse the family. Not only did Kangxi amused, but even Prince Cheng and Prince Heng who went to the banquet were also very happy. Knowing that it was Hongye Hongyun's idea, they praised him a lot.
