Chapter 95 Good and Bad News
Who would have known that this was not bad news at all. The Ying Concubine’s Ama, Mr. Yi Bilong, died half an hour ago, and his eldest son, the Ying Concubine’s brother Se Liang, was also seriously injured.
, I don’t know whether I will live or die at the moment.
Emperor Kangxi wanted to laugh, but the Niu Hulu family was so unfortunate that he could not laugh. Instead, he suppressed the corner of his mouth and made a somewhat sad expression, and issued two oral instructions in succession.
One is the reward for Ye Bilong. After all, he was an important person that the late emperor valued when he was still alive. Although he was later deprived of his position due to being implicated by Ao Bai, he was only awarded a first-class duke. Considering that he was a minister who cared about his life and was an honored minister.
You should pay more attention to your son so that he can walk safely.
One was out of sympathy for Seliang. Thinking that he was seriously injured, he asked someone to escort him back to Beijing to recuperate, which was also a farewell to his father.
However, Emperor Kangxi believed in Chani's ability and was afraid that Seliang would only accompany Ye Bilong when he came back, so he magnanimously added these rewards to the concubine Ying to show his respect for the Niu Hulu clan.
After all, Concubine Ying could not live for more than a few days. The great grace given to her was of no use to the Niu Hulu family. This would make the Niu Hulu family more loyal and a holy family member.
Emperor Kangxi was thinking about it, and he didn't have a plan in mind yet. He just asked his subordinates to draw up a plan, and then choose a title and a posthumous title, and give him Bilong to be buried. The rest still needs to be discussed to see how to reward Bilong and the heroic concubine.
good.
After giving such instructions, Emperor Kangxi did not forget to punish his heart and asked someone to send the letter to Concubine Ying. As for the Cining Palace, there was no need to repay it for the time being. He would not tell the Empress Dowager again until the bustling New Year was over.
It's too late, lest people suffer from the spring and autumn.
It was almost time to deal with this matter, and it was time to go back and prepare for the dinner. In previous years, it would be a big event. Emperor Kangxi would also entertain all the ministers and encourage and reward them in public.
Because there was a war this year, the palace took the lead in being frugal, so there was no need to be extravagant. Emperor Kangxi only entertained the harem and relatives at the Baohe Hall. After a lively night, the year was over.
After all, he has grown one year older.
However, it is also beneficial to sit without blinking. At least you don't have to socialize with the female relatives of the clan, and you can just eat by yourself.
It was only now that the meal was about to begin that Yu Lian regretted not filling her stomach with anything. There were twelve auspicious dishes for the appetizer alone, and there were countless main dishes later, as well as all kinds of dim sum and pastries.
Dried fruits, fresh fruits, and even milk tea are available in both strong and light flavors.
After passing by, I saw that Emperor Kangxi was leaning to his side, and there was something missing. Yu Yuan was busy standing still. Emperor Kangxi took advantage of no one paying attention, crossed his arms and hooked his fingers, and Yu Yuan carefully tapped Emperor Kangxi's palm.
, was caught red-handed.
After all, they are of lower status. Queens, emperors and concubines can use bright yellow for their auspicious clothes, concubines and concubines can use golden yellow, and concubines can wear fragrant colors, while nobles can only wear blue and green colors. It is really inconspicuous among the bright colors. Fortunately, jade can be used.
She has fair skin, and she won’t stand out from the crowd in this outfit.
Afraid of not being full due to the many rules at the banquet, Yu Yan specially prepared some snacks before setting off.
Who knew Emperor Kangxi had such an arrangement? Yu Lian hurriedly swallowed the bird's nest and duck shreds in her mouth, wiped her oily lips with a handkerchief, and asked Wei Zhu to lead the way.
Yu Yuan watched Emperor Kangxi leave, still clutching the string of copper coins with colorful threads in her hand, waiting for Hua Yue to remind her. Yu Yuan then went back and tied them at the end of the bed herself, and then allowed others to change her clothes.
.
"My lord, please stop using it now. The masters of the harem are all watching on the west side. Don't crowd with the clan members on the east side. You can go quickly. Long Live the Lord is looking forward to watching the fireworks with you."
Listening to the sound of "bang", a firework exploded in front of the two of them. Neither Emperor Kangxi nor Yu Yuan said anything, they just stood next to each other, one behind the other, looking at the beauty in front of them.
Everyone who attended the banquet was dressed in auspicious clothes, and the dressing up was very complicated. The two of them did not stay in the imperial garden much. Emperor Kangxi sent the jade pendant back to Yonghe Palace and then drove back to Qianqing Palace.
Fortunately, there were no serious mistresses above the concubines in Emperor Kangxi's harem, and the British concubine could not come, so even if she wanted to have sex, everyone would do it together.
Yuqian couldn't get used to drinking milk tea at first. She thought the smell of milk was too strong, but now she tasted a mild milk tea and found out the taste. It was a pity that she took one or two bites of each dish and felt full halfway through the meal. I reluctantly ate some more fresh fruit and half a cup of milk tea, but I couldn't eat any more.
There are indeed a lot of rules at first. We bow to the heaven and the earth and bow to the Long Live Lord. The Long Live Lord brings three rounds of wine and says three rounds of auspicious words. The Long Live Lord moves the chopsticks. This is the beginning of the banquet. The silk and bamboo are melodious, and there are many songs and dances. The atmosphere is now Get lively.
However, Master Kangxi's grip was so tight that Yu Lian couldn't pull it out even if he wanted to, so he had to step forward and get closer, for fear of being seen by others.
However, this year's banquet will be held from Youshi to Zishi, and more than three hours are enough for her to eat. Yu Guan takes a break to eat, and does not watch the fireworks and firecrackers outside. Anyway, she is not tall yet. They don't have high status when they grow up. They just gather together to listen to the excitement. They can't see much because of the crowds, so they just eat with peace of mind.
Later, Emperor Kangxi looked around but couldn't see her, so he called Wei Zhu to look for her.
Wei Zhu couldn't help but laugh. He had never seen such a master before. Everyone else was looking for opportunities to get in front of the Long Live Lord. The noble man was a good man and only had food in his eyes.
The two stood close to each other, and just in time Emperor Kangxi tilted his head slightly and whispered to Yuyan in a low voice.
Yu Lian shyly stuck out her tongue at Emperor Kangxi and wrote the word "delicious" on Emperor Kangxi's palm, which made Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but curl up his lips. He couldn't use up any meal, so he had to save some for him. He didn't say anything about having more than enough every year, he just wanted his little girl to be satisfied and happy.
"You little greedy one, am I hungry for you on weekdays?"
After a while, Emperor Kangxi went directly to Baohe Hall, while Yu Yuan and everyone in the harem went to Cining Palace to wait. When all the clan members, including the Empress Dowager, the Queen Mother, and Long Live Lord, were seated, they quietly came in from the side door. , there were screens on both sides of the dragon chair at the back, and these low-status nobles sat here.
After the fireworks and firecrackers were set off, the clan members said goodbye one by one. However, the day was not over yet. Emperor Kangxi and everyone in the harem, as well as the elder brothers, had to go to Cining Palace to stay with the Empress Dowager. However, Chang was below. If your status is too low, there is no need to come. Just close the door and enjoy yourself.
Yuqian was envious when she saw Rui Changzai being able to go back to sleep. However, this was a rule and a grace, and she could not be lenient. Even Ronggui had to suffer from the head rheumatic disease before it was cured.
Fortunately, I was able to borrow the side hall to change out of these heavy clothes and just accompany the Empress Dowager to play and watch the night, which was a lot easier.
Playing leaf cards and throwing dice was not boring at all. The palace was so lively that even Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but play for two rounds. He also fed Yu Yuan a lot of cards and poured a lot of water.
I will update 20,000 to warm up first, and I will write another 10,000. I will update 10,000 tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, for a total of 50,000~
