The Flower in the Mirror and the Moon in the Water finally get married

Xiao Haoxuan's background is very good, he recovered from his illness after resting in the palace for two days, Xia Chenhuan also took care of the man closely for two days.

During these two days, Xiao Haoxuan's food was made by Xia Chenhuan, his clothes were served by Xia Chenhuan, and Xia Chenhuan checked the account book for him, so he was really relaxed.Reading books during the day, playing chess at night, and listening to Xia Chenhuan play a few songs, it was a rare pleasure.

The pleasant days always passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Xiao Haoxuan recovered from his illness, and lived a nine-to-five life again.

It was getting darker and earlier, and seeing the twelfth lunar month, the end of the year was the busiest time for the Dayan court, and it was also the busiest time for Prince Xuan's mansion.

The Spring Festival has always been the most important festival for the Central Plains people.

Xia Kingdom and Dayan both belong to the farming civilization, but it is a special country where farming civilization and grazing civilization are integrated, and the emphasis on the Spring Festival is far less than that of Dayan.

For the first time, Xia Chenhuan knew that Chinese New Year was such a complicated and troublesome thing.

Xiao Haoxuan gradually delegated power to Xia Chenhuan after returning from the Yellow River disaster relief.Although it was for the purpose of probing, since he is the concubine of Xuan Wang, the housekeeper, Uncle Li, must report to Xia Chenhuan for major matters in the mansion, especially those in the backyard, and let him decide.

Of course, there are many things that Xia Chenhuan won't know.

Even Xia Chenhuan's whereabouts and affairs are presented to Xiao Haoxuan every day.

Xia Chenhuan was just right about his identity, he tried his best to take care of the things that King Xuan asked him to take care of, and didn't care about or ask about the rest.

The arrangements for the new year were within Xia Chenhuan's control.

First of all, it is necessary to distinguish between those who go home to visit relatives during the Spring Festival and those who stay behind, based on the annual rotation and performance during the year.After that, it is necessary to determine the salaries and red envelopes of everyone in the mansion at the end of the year, which should neither be too much nor stingy.

The second is the repair and cleaning of the palace at the end of the year.Although Prince Xuan's mansion has always been extravagant and simple, it must not lose the status and demeanor that King Xuan should have.

The next step is to prepare for the sacrifice.The ancestor worship and heaven sacrifices are naturally arranged by the Ministry of Rites, but the sacrifices in the palace, such as the kitchen stove, the God of Wealth, and the door god, etc., which Xia Chenhuan had only read about in books before, must be arranged by him.

Finally, plan the schedule for the first month.

On New Year's Eve, I will go to the palace for a banquet.On the first day of junior high school, an opera troupe was invited to sing in the mansion.On the second day of junior high school, Xuanwang Mansion entertained guests.The third day of worship.From the fourth day of the lunar new year, Xia Chenhuan and Xiao Haoxuan will come to pay New Year's greetings together, from the royal family to the wealthy officials, to show the royal favor.At the same time, it is also necessary to arrange other people's New Year's greetings and dinners.

In short, it lasts until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the year is really over after the Lantern Festival.

And all things had to be planned and arranged by Xia Chenhuan in advance, and the frequency of entering the palace was getting higher and higher, so he was indeed busy.

Emperor Xiao Chuyi had only the empress in the harem, and in previous years, the empress had arranged for the Spring Festival in the palace.

Even Prince Xuan's Mansion is so busy, one can imagine how much the Queen's business will be.Fortunately, there are fewer people in the harem, no concubines and concubines, and fewer maids and eunuchs, which saves a lot of trouble.

But this year, King Xuan accepted the concubine, and Xia Chenhuan, as a daughter-in-law and concubine, was obliged to share things for the queen.

So when the emperor made a decree, Xia Chenhuan ran to the palace every now and then.

Xiao Haoxuan was very busy at the end of the year, and Gu Yao was originally worried that Xia Chenhuan would be alone in Dayan and would be homesick.He also wanted him to familiarize himself with the people who were familiar with things in the palace in advance, so he called them into the palace.

In the beginning, Xia Chenhuan did help the queen check the year-end accounts, arrange the ancestor worship ceremony, and plan the New Year's Eve dinner...

But later the queen gradually stopped letting him do it, and only let herself watch him assign work.

It was only then that Xia Chenhuan discovered that everyone around the queen was capable, and the heads of various departments in the palace and officials from the Ministry of Rituals were also highly capable. No wonder the queen managed to keep the palace in order without much effort.

It turns out that they know how to know people and make good use of them, and plan strategies.

Even his own son can make the best use of everything.

Xia Chenhuan couldn't help laughing at the sad face of the second prince Xiao Sichu.

While making plans, Xiao Sichu glanced resentfully at his mother, who was chatting with the emperor's wife at ease, with a very peace of mind.

The nine-year-old boy was so angry that he muttered with a dark face, "The expenses for the Spring Festival should be decided by my mother, but now it's all pushed to me and Nianyi..."

While talking, Xiao Sichu looked at his younger brother, wanting someone to help him, but in the end, Xiao Nianyi didn't even look at him, and buried himself in writing hard, fluently, and calculated the expenses without even counting.

Xiao Sichu gritted his teeth and turned his head, he shouldn't have counted on this nerd!

Xiao Sichu had no choice but to continue to state the reasons by himself, "I don't need to worry about these in the future, after the establishment of the mansion, the princess will naturally take care of it."

Gu Yao glanced at his son with disdain, and hit him mercilessly, "If you can't even count the expenses, how can you manage your own property? To put it further, if you don't understand the trivial matters of ordinary life, how can you understand the people's sentiments?"

Gu Yao knows Si Chu very well.Very smart, with quick thinking and jumping, prefers martial arts and art of war, but is somewhat repulsive to numbers and the like.

Although Gu Yao didn't force him to learn arithmetic, he often asked him to look at the account books and determine expenses, so as to train his son's logical thinking and sensitivity to money.

After all, Xiao Sichu is a prince, even if he doesn't want to be proficient in everything, he still has to master the six arts, and has the ability and intelligence to survive and protect himself.

Xiao Sichu curled her lips, and could only continue to make plans silently, anyway, he never said anything bad about his mother!

Xiao Nianyi had already put down his pen, and looked at Gu Yao with a smile on his face, expressing the satisfaction of completing the task, "Mother, I've already made an order and checked it!"

Gu Yao took the account book with a smile, and didn't intend to check it again, "Nianyi did a good job, you go and pick up Haoyuan and Haojun."

Although they are twins, Nianyi and Sichu are just the opposite. They are very sensitive to numbers, like reading books, and also like to study various fortification tools.

Xiao Nianyi didn't even look at his resentful brother, he smiled openly, and ran to pick up his younger siblings.

The fourth prince and the fifth princess are already four and a half years old, and they go to the Imperial College for half a day of class every afternoon.

And Xiao Sichu and Xiao Nianyi are geniuses and they will go to the Imperial College. In the afternoon, they will practice martial arts, or Gu Yao will teach them in person.

So the two always went to pick up Xiao Haoyuan and Xiao Haojun from get out of class, and took care of the two babies by the way, preventing them from climbing trees on the road, digging out bird nests and so on.

Xiao Sichu watched Xiao Nianyi's back disappearing depressedly, turned around with a sullen face, gritted his teeth and made his abacus sound.

The corners of Xia Chenhuan's mouth became more and more curved. He really liked these cute princes and princesses, and he really envied them.

From the third prince to the fifth princess, the four are all extremely intelligent and have their own strengths.

But apart from being brilliant, they are nothing like royal children.

Not arrogant, not domineering, not self-important.

Read a hundred books, master six arts, know a lot, but have a very pure mind, and know the righteousness of the people at a young age.

The personality is optimistic, cheerful and unyielding, and the brothers and sisters get along very well.Really love each other, love Xiao Haoxuan, love their father and mother.

Xia Chenhuan had dinner with the emperor, empress, king Xuan, and the four princes and princesses a few times, and she really looked like an ordinary family.

Let Xia Chenhuan, who had lost her mother since she was a child, was neglected, and had seen too much darkness around the palace, looked extremely envious.

Xia Chenhuan turned to look at the queen, who immediately smiled at him, very gentle.

Originally, because of the secret of his substitute, Xia Chenhuan was afraid of the queen at first, afraid of revealing his flaws.

But the more she got in touch with Gu Yao, the more relaxed Xia Chenhuan became.

The queen is kind and kind, making people unconsciously let go of their guards and want to get closer to him.That's the kind of person who can raise such lovely children.

Seeing that Xia Chenhuan regained consciousness, Gu Yao continued what he said just now at the end, and at the same time pointed out on the structural diagram, "The function of the heart is to promote blood flow and provide sufficient blood flow to organs and tissues. The left atrium, left ventricle, and right atrium , right ventricle consists of four chambers. The atrium is..."

Xia Chenhuan listened very carefully, and even wrote down the key points on paper, and asked questions immediately if she didn't understand.

Learning medicine from Gu Yao, this is what Xia Chenhuan has been doing recently when she entered the palace.

Gu Yao didn't need Xia Chenhuan's help, the two of them talked more naturally in their free time.

They are all people who like to read, so naturally they can have a good time chatting about everything, and they turned to medicine after chatting, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

When Xiao Haoxuan contracted a cold, Gu Yao sent someone to deliver his special medicine to the palace, and the effect was very good.

Xia Chenhuan saw a lot of herbs planted in Weiyang Palace again, and couldn't help but sigh, the queen is still proficient in medicine?

The result surprised him even more.

Gu Yao not only understands medical skills, but also has many views and insights that Xia Chenhuan has never heard of.

Such as the composition of the human body, the principle of muscle activity, nervous tissue, digestive system, circulatory system, brain, heart, lung lobes...

All in all, amazing words.

But Gu Yao combined modern medicine and Chinese medicine very well, and omitted the parts that were too advanced.Very clearly explained and very convincing.

The more Xia Chenhuan listened, the more surprised she became, and the more she listened, the more fascinated she became, and finally she asked to study medicine with Gu Yao.

Xia Chenhuan suddenly assumed Xia Chenyu's identity, from a serving dowry to a serving princess.He lost his goal, and he was so confused that he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know how to go on in the future.

He is immersed in books every day, dealing with the affairs of the palace, and... serving the bed.

The past is not considered empty, but it is drifting with the tide, unable to see where the future is, and the heart is always hanging in the air.

Studying medicine gave Xia Chenhuan a goal, and his heart finally settled down.

Gu Yao saw that Xia Chenhuan loved him from the bottom of his heart, so he was naturally happy to teach him.He also introduced Dr. Wu from Jishitang to Xia Chenhuan.

Gu Yao knows what level he is, and it's okay to lay the foundation for others now.But modern medical methods are difficult to practice after all, Xia Chenhuan still has to learn from serious doctors in the future, and it is best to combine Chinese and Western medicine.

Xia Chenhuan memorized the annotations, and played with Haoyuan and Haojun after school for a while before leaving the palace and returning home.

It happened to be dinner time when we returned to Prince Xuan's Mansion.

He changed his clothes and came out, Qing Luo and Qing Yao had already prepared the dishes.

Six dishes and one soup, compared to other wealthy families, the configuration of Prince Xuan's Mansion is already frugal, but Xia Chenhuan still feels a bit wasteful.

He once wanted Lianqiu, Qing Luo and Qing Yao to have dinner with him, but the three of them refused to do so.Xia Chenhuan had no choice but to let them go out to eat by themselves instead of watching by his side.

Xia Chenhuan sat down and asked as usual, "Is the prince back?"

Lianqiu shook her head, "The steward said the prince is still in the household department."

Xia Chenhuan sighed, a little worried about the man's body, but he could only nod his head to indicate that he knew, and eat with his chopsticks.

The three maids withdrew.

Except for going to bed at night, Xia Chenhuan rarely saw Xiao Haoxuan, let alone having meals together.

Recently, Xiao Haoxuan was very busy, leaving early and returning late, and was often busy in Liubu until night, so the number of visits to him naturally decreased.

Xia Chenhuan was just five minutes full when Lianqiu came in.

"Princess, Tao Wenhui from the Xia State Envoy's Mansion, Mr. Tao is seeking an audience outside the mansion."

Now is not a good time to visit, not to mention that the princess is a female relative.Although strange, there must be something important.So Lianqiu didn't dare to delay, and quickly informed Xia Chenhuan.

Xia Chenhuan took a breath, his pupils dilated, and the hand holding the chopsticks trembled almost invisible.

He quickly calmed down and tried to act nonchalantly, "Ask him to meet in the lobby, and I'll be there right away."

"Yes, I will let Qing Luo pass it on."
