Honghui is reborn in Legend of Zhen Huan, I will protect my mother

As the new year approaches, the emperor sealed his vacation a few days ago, and the officials below him also sealed their vacations one by one. This means they are officially on vacation.

It was said that the seal would not be issued until around the 20th day of the first lunar month, and all the civil and military officials and the princes would have a month's vacation. Yinzhen would go to Haitang Garden from time to time when he had time. He had to worry about the affairs of the government and the homework of the eldest prince Honghui.

"Master, the road is frozen now. Don't come here in person, or you might hurt yourself! I will ask Jiang Fuhai to carry Honghui to the front yard."

Yinzhen argued: "Honghui is so young, how can he stand the cold wind every day? As a mother, how can you not feel sorry for your son at all?"

"..."

Yixiu had nothing to say, so she could only change the subject to prevent the Fourth Master from pestering her further. "Master, you told me a few days ago that the annual gifts for the various royal palaces and the palace have been prepared. Do you have anything to add?"

Yinzhen took the gift list and looked at it carefully. It was basically in accordance with the old customs of previous years, except that the gifts from the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were increased by 10%. The Empress in the Palace also received two sets of clothes and two boxes of various accessories.

Yixiu's housekeeping ability is quite good. She prepared the New Year's gifts for the first time without any major mistakes! Although there are still some minor problems in the details, such as the lack of rare items from the second brother of the crown prince, and the emperor's father can add two more thoughtful gifts.

But these were not big problems. Yinzhen took up his pen and started sketching, and it was done in less than a quarter of an hour.

Seeing the Fourth Master swiftly putting away his brush, Yixiu looked hesitant, "Master, my eldest sister is the Consort. Do you really want me to prepare the New Year gifts for you?" She was afraid that the Fourth Master would be reported for favoring his concubine over his wife!

Yinzhen's attitude was very firm: "Fujin is not in good health, she needs to rest and recuperate, and she will not be able to take care of the affairs of the mansion in the future. You are the only one in the mansion who is of Manchu banner origin, and you gave birth to my eldest prince, so you are qualified to be the housekeeper! Xiaoyi, don't worry, the emperor knows what is going on!"

He recalled the painful experience of revising the gift list for Rouze three years ago. The New Year gifts prepared by Rouze were basically some flashy gifts, and he couldn't even distinguish the most basic relatives. Could the New Year gift for his eighth brother be the same as those for his thirteenth and fourteenth brothers?

At this point, Yixiu had no choice but to take on the responsibility.

There are many things to do during the new year. The New Year gifts are just one of them. There are many other things waiting for Yixiu to take care of, such as giving rewards to the servants, giving rewards to the princesses, and the most difficult thing to deal with is the main courtyard.

"Master, are you still going to reward the servants according to the old rules? How about giving them an extra month's salary to pray for the Second Prince? And Qi Gege, Li Gege, and Song Gege have been frightened quite a bit this year, why not give them more things to comfort them?"

These are all trivial matters. Yinzhen nodded indifferently, "You decide."

Yixiu then understood what was going on and decided to reward the people accordingly, so that the princesses and servants below would appreciate her kindness.

"Master, although Princess Miao is a criminal, she is pregnant with your child. Do you think you should show her more rewards?" There was also Miao who was imprisoned in his own yard.

Yinzhen said without hesitation: "Miao has committed a serious mistake, you don't need to worry about it, and let Fu Jin take care of the main courtyard."

The most difficult part was solved so easily? Yixiu was a little bit unbelievable, but she didn't want to get involved with Miao and her elder sister, two difficult characters.

"I will obey you, my Lord!" After saying this, she threw herself into handling the affairs of the mansion. At the end of the year and the end of the month, the monthly allowances and rewards of each courtyard had to go through her hands.

How could she be negligent when it comes to money?

Yinzhen did not disturb Yixiu from handling government affairs, but went to the study. He learned from Yixiu that Honghui had been practicing calligraphy in the study for half an hour.

Honghui's diligence is worthy of praise, but it was freezing cold and his little hands were frozen red, which made his father feel a little distressed.

Sure enough, Honghui's little hands were already red from the cold!

Yinzhen grabbed it and walked towards the charcoal stove with his eldest son. "Honghui, do you understand the principle of knowing when to stop? Come over and warm yourself by the fire. If you get frostbite again, you will be in pain."

Honghui smiled guiltily. His father came too often and any efforts he made secretly would be discovered immediately.

"Father, I heard that my second brother had a high fever last night. Has the fever subsided now?"

There was a big commotion in the main courtyard last night. It was said that the second prince had a sudden high fever and Yinzhen also stayed up for half the night.

"Old Doctor Lu is an excellent doctor. The fever has gone down. But your second brother's health is not optimistic! Alas!"

Seeing his father's dejected look, Honghui regretted bringing up his father's sad story just to change the subject.

"Father, good people are blessed by heaven. My second brother will be safe and sound." After saying this, he said no more and stayed quietly beside Father.

The unusual silence in the study lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Yinzhen calmed himself down. He couldn't let his son, who was not even four years old, worry about him.

"Honghui, in a few days, on New Year's Day, you will follow me and your mother to the palace to pay respects. Not only will you go to your mama's palace, but you will also have to pay respects to your Ukuma. You will meet many people then, some who like you and some who don't. Don't be afraid or depressed, because your mother and mama are here, and they will accompany you."

Honghui was not afraid at all. He was not silver, so how could he be loved by everyone? Besides, there were people who regarded money as dirt. Even silver was not loved by everyone, let alone a living person like him!

"Father, don't worry about your son. As long as his relatives like him, he will be satisfied. As for those irrelevant outsiders, I don't care what they think."

What Yinzhen was afraid of was that someone would make things difficult for his eldest son. After all, he had been in the spotlight at the gold awarding banquet, and there would definitely be jealous people who would make things difficult for him.

If it was a peer, it would be fine, Honghui was smart and could resolve them one by one, and maybe even fight back. But if an elder ignored his status and wanted to embarrass a younger person, then he would have to ask the palace mother to help.

Looking at Honghui who looked confident, Yinzhen couldn't smile at all. He just touched his son's head, and couldn't stop worrying. He didn't want his eldest son to be exposed to the dangers of the world too early, but the world was like this, and with his power, he couldn't protect his eldest son completely!

"Honghui, you have to act according to circumstances. If someone bullies you, tell your mama. If your mama knows, she will stand up for you."

Honghui smiled, revealing a row of neat little white teeth, and leaned against Ama stickily, "Ama, you are so nice!"

Yinzhen calmly reprimanded him: "Stand up straight and behave yourself!"

However, those red ears betrayed his inner thoughts!
