Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

After the Beginning of Winter comes the Winter Solstice, which is the most grand festival before the New Year.

According to custom, on this day, everyone has to wear new socks before entering the palace to attend the palace banquet.

A few days ago, Yixiu ordered people to send socks from each room. Because everyone had to prepare for the palace banquet in the evening, Yixiu simply exempted herself from the greetings on this day.

After breakfast, everyone prepared to enter the palace.

Yixiu naturally rode in the same sedan chair with the Fourth Prince Yinzhen. Honghui was held in Yixiu's arms. Although the sedan chair was a little bumpy, he still slept soundly.

Following behind them were the concubines and princesses.

Sitting in the sedan chair, Rouze stroked her belly, feeling a little nervous. The Fourth Prince had been very good to her these days and came to visit her often.

Because of Xinghui's help, Qi Yuebin has now sided with her.

But for some reason, she felt a little uneasy and irritated.

At this time, Rouze had not yet realized that this insecurity might have started when she asked Duoluo Gege to find a Taoist priest and a monk to tell fortunes and fabricate lies.

Everything built on lies, disguise and deception is ultimately like a dream.

But at this moment, Rouze was only thinking about how to continue to attract Yinzhen's attention, and it would be best if she could snatch all of Yinzhen's attention from Honghui before the birth of her unborn child.

While Rouze was thinking, the sedan chair had already stopped at the foot of the palace wall.

Except for the people from the Fourth Prince's Mansion, people from other princes' mansions also got off the sedan chairs one after the other.

Before Rouze got off the sedan chair, she happened to meet the eldest prince, with his wife standing next to him.

When he saw Rouze, the eldest prince smiled slightly, rubbed his cheek, and his eyes were full of mockery. In Rouze's opinion, this was a mockery of her, so she returned to the fourth prince's mansion as a princess.

She couldn't help feeling angry, and she felt even more that she had to stand out.

----------

Everyone filed in, each with their own thoughts. The palace walls were deep, and snowflakes fell from time to time, landing on shoulders and disappearing in an instant.

Of course, dinner is for drinking and having fun.

This year, the northwestern border was pacified several times, and Emperor Kangxi even led the army in person and captured several cities. At the end of the year, he was inevitably happy, so he pulled a few princes to drink a few more glasses.

As the princes toasted each other, the Fourth Prince drank a little too much and wanted to go out for a walk.

Yixiu stood up and wanted to go with him, but Yinzhen pushed her to sit down and said that the weather was cold in winter and it would be enough to have Su Peisheng accompany her, so she should just stay in the room and look after Honghui.

Yixiu said a few polite words and then picked up Honghui again.

It's so cold outside, how can it be as comfortable as holding my little glutinous rice ball-like son in my arms.

Rouze, who was sitting in the back, saw that Yinzhen only took Su Peisheng away, so she sneaked out under the pretext of being drunk.

Following Yinzhen all the way, Rouze was thinking about how to get Yinzhen's attention.

After thinking it over, she decided that she should find a place with nice scenery.

Although Rouze did not grow up in the palace, she often came to the palace because of Concubine De. She vaguely remembered the plum blossoms she just passed by, which seemed to be the Yimei Garden.

It was now a winter afternoon, the sun was shining lazily, and the flowers were fragrant. Perhaps it would leave a good impression on Yinzhen.

Fortunately, Yinzhen came out for a walk to avoid drinking, so he was not in a hurry to travel. He stood in the pavilion on the side of the road for a while, and then went to look at the frozen lake. When he wanted to go up and take a walk, Su Peisheng next to him was so scared that he pulled him back.

Rouze pulled Fangluo back and went into the garden to find a suitable angle.

After Fang Luo tidied up Rouze's clothes, she went to stand guard outside the garden. From a distance, she saw the Fourth Prince Yinzhen and Su Peisheng coming. She coughed twice towards inside, then rubbed her hands, stamped her feet, and pretended to have been standing at the gate of the garden for a long time.

----------

"Hey, isn't this Miss Fangluo? Why are you standing here freezing?"

Su Peisheng stepped forward and asked.

"Fourth Prince, Eunuch Su?" Fang Luo looked a little surprised. After a pause, she said, "Our master came here to make a wish. He is not far inside. I am waiting for him."

"She is pregnant. How can she make a wish alone in this freezing weather?" Yinzhen frowned and walked forward. Su Peisheng and Fang Luo also hurried to follow.

"I wish my lover a thousand years, my child safety, and the north wind understanding my feelings, not to destroy me easily."

Under the plum tree, Rouze clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and made a wish. Her long and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, casting a small shadow on her cheek.

Yinzhen leaned close to Rouze's neck and took a deep breath: "It smells so good."

The next moment, Rouze fell into a warm embrace. Yinzhen scolded her, "Why are you here alone? You are pregnant. You make me worry."

"Fourth Prince?" Rouze was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly, "Fangluo is not far from me, if there is anything, she will be able to hear it. When I lived in Ganlu Temple, I heard the nuns in the temple say that it is more effective to make a wish when there is no one around and the mind is calm and peaceful. I just made a wish for the Fourth Prince and the child, so I dare not be insincere."

Seeing Rouze's thin face and hearing the words "Ganlu Temple", Yinzhen felt distressed and sighed, "It's been so long since you came back, why haven't you gained weight yet?"

Yinzhen reached out and poked Rouze's face, studying it carefully.

Su Peisheng pulled Fang Luo up and consciously retreated to the door they had just been to.

----------

Rouze rubbed her hands and said, "I must not gain weight. After the baby is born, I will have to practice dancing again. The Fourth Prince has not seen it properly yet!"

Yinzhen looked at Rouze and asked, "What did you call me?"

"Fourth Prince." Rouze looked up at Yinzhen, not knowing what he meant. "What's the matter?"

Yinzhen took off his cloak, wrapped Rouze tightly and said, "You just called me your husband."

"Yes...I have overstepped my bounds, please forgive me, Fourth Prince..." Having said this, Rouze was about to kneel down and salute, explaining, "I am just a princess, and Fourth Prince is the master. I shouldn't...shouldn't..."

Yinzhen laughed loudly, and before anyone could kneel down, he hugged Rouze tightly in his arms: "I like you to call me Langjun. From now on, when you are alone, just call me Langjun."

Yinzhen held Rouze in his arms for a long time before saying, "Rou'er, I know that with your background, appearance, and talent, you should not be just a princess. It's just that what happened before was really unfortunate. Don't worry, the emperor has already revealed it privately. After the new year, the princes will be promoted, and I will probably be among them."

"When the time comes, there will be more places in the backyard. When the child is born, I will definitely promote you to a higher position."

Because Su Peisheng was guarding outside the garden, Yinzhen was not afraid of others barging in and seeing him. He kissed Rouze's hair and said, "I really like the last two lines of poetry you recited. The wind is against my will, so don't destroy me. Rouer has a kind heart and a good temperament."

Rouze accepted Yinzhen's compliment with a smile, and was secretly delighted in her heart, because she had heard these two sentences from Mo Yan, and she didn't expect that they would come in handy at this time.
