Chapter 61 Chapter 61(2/3)
Shun's Yan family is indeed not simple.
The direct descendant Fujin of the Qing Dynasty was from his family, the empress of Master Shunzhi, the biological mother of the present emperor was from his family, and the late queen of the present emperor was also from his family.
Regardless of the previous dynasty, just looking at the fact that his family has produced so many harem leaders, you know that his family must be extremely measured in doing things, not to mention those around him.
Yinzhen believed Shun Anyan and said with great relief: "With your help, my road before leaving the palace is paved."
Shun Anyan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I have never seen such a prince. As a Manchu man, he is even more interested in doing business than riding and shooting.
Yinzhen was in a good mood, and was naturally very polite to the people who helped him: "I will remember you. If anything happens in the future, you can ask me for help." Thinking about it, it is best to go wrong elsewhere, otherwise such a prosperous shop will be very difficult in the future.
Nan Zaixun said: "You have to have a good talk with your uncle. After I went out, when I invited Bage to dinner, I also called your uncle." After a pause: "Of course you are there too."
"Okay, okay." Shun Anyan said, "I'm just waiting for Master Jiu's invitation."
The two of them said a few words and then left.
Shun Anyan walked for a while, but heard Yinzhen calling over there: "Fifth sister, what are you going to do? Are you going to the imperial grandmother's place?"
He involuntarily stopped and looked back.
Even if he is a member of the natal family of several queens, as a man, he can come to the inner palace to pay greetings to the queen mother, but he cannot move around at will.
In the palace, he must not wander around without the guidance of palace officials.
Just now, because Brother Ninth had something to do with him, Brother Ninth sent all the palace people away, so the two of them could talk alone for a while.
If a female concubine comes to talk to him, they cannot speak alone, and must be followed by a chamberlain.
Now, even if he is curious, Shun Anyan can only stop and look over there for a few times, but cannot go there.
He saw a young girl standing next to a rockery, with a gentle temperament and charming appearance, talking to Yinzhen.
The girl's voice is not loud and cannot be heard from here. But her bright smile can be seen clearly from here.
Shun Anyan couldn't help but go against the original intention of just looking at it twice, and stopped for a while, and looked at it for a while.
It wasn't until the nanny beside him urged him that he reluctantly looked away and walked out slowly.
It was an extremely bright and sunny day on the day when the Imperial Master returned to the court.
Early in the morning, the entire palace was in a state of excitement.
The six palaces in the east and west are all busy making final preparations to welcome the master of the palace back home.
Relatively speaking, Yonghe Palace is a little calmer.
After getting up in the morning, Luo Jianing went to greet Concubine De first. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law asked the wet nurse to bring Brother Hui over, and they played with Brother Hui for a while.
Soon the seventh princess got up and had breakfast.
Afterwards, the Queen Mother also got up and sent the fifth princess to visit Concubine De.
Everyone gathered together and still circled around Brother Hui.
This little guy is getting more and more beautiful and cute. He has a good temper and giggles when he sees people. He is especially happy when he sees his mother and grandmother, and even stretches out his little hands for them to hug him.
He was also very happy to see his aunts. But most of the time he stared at them with his big round eyes open.
A few people teased Brother Hui for a long time, and when Brother Hui was tired and fell asleep, the wet nurse carried him back to the inner room. Only then did they realize that they would be able to see the emperor later.
Yonghe Palace just started to be busy at this time.
The palace is cleaned every day, and there is no dust anywhere. The utensils are usually placed neatly, so there is no need to change them.
The so-called welcoming the emperor is nothing more than adding some celebratory ornaments and decorations to the palace, such as window grilles and the like.
Firstly, it was to welcome the emperor back to the palace, which showed that he attached great importance to his return. Secondly, it was also to celebrate the great victory.
Nagardan was so brave that Emperor Kangxi even went to war personally.
Now that he has been destroyed, it is certainly worthy of great celebration.
Concubine De didn't have much idea about those who were fighting and killing. When she heard that they were going to celebrate, it was just a superficial act.
What she cares most about is her well-behaved grandson.
"Brother Hui is awake? If he's not, just keep your voice down so as not to disturb him."
"This stuff is delicious. If you make it into a paste, you can give it to Brother Hui to try. Keep it in the inner room and don't take it out."
"This fruit is soft. Give it to Brother Hui to scrape it with a spoon and eat it. Keep it inside and don't put it outside."
In all these cases, I always consider my grandchildren first and then think of other things.
The seventh princess raised her hand and half-covered her mouth and murmured to her sister-in-law: "Looking at the mother-in-law and the concubine, those who knew it knew that their father was coming back, but those who didn't knew thought that Brother Hui didn't usually live in the palace and wanted to come to the palace.
Here it is."
She said this in a low voice. But the time was not coincidental, and there happened to be no other voices at this time.
So Concubine De listened to everything.
Concubine De glared at her daughter: There is no need to tell the truth! What if people from other palaces hear it?
The seventh princess realized that she had made a mistake, so she stuck out her tongue and became silent.
Concubine De remembered something again and hurriedly asked Luo Jianing: "Did you go to clean the house a few days ago? How was the cleaning?" She couldn't help nagging: "Be careful and remember to clean the house."
Keep it tidy so that when he comes back he won't look dirty and talk about you again."
The fifth princess had such a gentle temperament that she couldn't help but retort at this time: "Concubine, you don't know how much the fourth brother spoils the fourth sister-in-law. Even if the house is not cleaned at all, the fourth brother will never do it.
It’s not even a word to say fourth sister-in-law.”
Concubine De gave her a sideways glance: "What do you know? When these men go to war and fight with the enemy every day, how can their tempers be improved? They might have been doted on by thousands of beauties before, but it's hard to say how they will be these days after they come back."
After talking about her daughter, she stared at her daughter-in-law again: "Remember to ask someone to clean it a few more times, so that he will not complain about you again." After all, she was still worried that her daughter-in-law would be blamed by her son.
Luo Jianing smiled and said: "Don't worry, concubine, Su Peisheng has remembered it for me. Yesterday, he went back to the house to help me keep an eye on it for a while, and he saw that the cleaning was good."
Concubine De felt relieved now.
Su Peisheng left her palace, and she had an impression. He was a smart man. With his help and watching people do their work, she felt much more at ease.
At this time, someone from the palace came excitedly and reported: "Your Majesty! The Emperor is back! He is talking to brothers and ministers in the Imperial Study Room!"
"Okay, okay." Concubine De stood up and slowly sat back down: "It'll be good when you're back."
Thinking that Emperor Kangxi would not be able to go to the harem right away when he came back, she relaxed again and invited the children to have lunch first: "The emperor will most likely hold a banquet. We don't have to go to the banquet this time, we can just eat some at our place."
Having just returned to the palace, I naturally wanted to reward the soldiers and appease them.
At this time, the harem family members generally do not need to come forward.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law all started eating.
Unexpectedly, not long after eating, someone outside the palace announced in a loud voice with surprise and joy: "Brother Si is here——"
Everyone in the room put down their bowls and chopsticks and looked at each other in confusion.
It seems that the emperor and his brothers have not returned to the inner palace yet.
Why is Fourth Brother here?
Just when everyone was looking at the door in surprise, a tall and thin figure strode over. The sunlight outside the house shone on him from behind, and followed him into the house.
He was taller and darker than when he left before. But his eyes became firmer and the curve of his chin became firmer.
Luo Jianing couldn't help but call out: "Fourth Master."
Yinzhen's stride paused for a moment.
The next moment, he looked towards her, a gentle smile on his resolute face: "I'm back."
Luo Jianing didn't feel anything at first and just subconsciously called him this.
But after hearing his long-lost voice, she felt a bit sore for no reason, put down her chopsticks and threw herself into his arms.
Yinzhen hugged her tightly for a while, raised his hand and stroked her hair: "I haven't changed my clothes yet, they are very dirty." The implication was that he was afraid of getting her clothes dirty.
A simple sentence dispelled the surprise that Luo Jianing had just had to meet.
Yinzhen took her hand and walked to the table: "My son, please pay my respects to my mother and concubine." He said with a salute.
"My family doesn't need to be polite." Concubine De smiled and asked, "Why are you here? I heard they are all attending a banquet outside."
Yinzhen said: "They are all still outside. I also sneaked back here. I want to see you."
The seventh princess chuckled beside her: "We are fake. Fourth sister-in-law and Brother Hui are real."
When he heard his sister mentioning his son, Yinzhen's eyes finally couldn't control themselves and started to wander wildly.
Luo Jianing called the wet nurse and asked her to take the baby out and show it to the fourth master.
The wet nurse said that Brother Hui had just woken up.
Yinzhen said: "There's no need to let him out. I'll go in and take a look." After saying that, he took Luo Jianing's hand and went into the inner room together.
The seventh princess stretched out her head to look, pulled her sister and said, "Let's go see Brother Hui too." She persuaded the fifth princess to get up from her chair.
Brother Hui can now sit and crawl.
