The Lonely Family in the Red Chamber

Apart from the crown prince, the two most powerful princes were reprimanded. This seemed to be a clear signal that everyone in the court became more enthusiastic about the East Palace.

Emperor Chengqing also felt this, and his perception of Tu Jingnian was a bit complicated. One was proud of having such an outstanding son, but on the other hand, he also had a sense of crisis. He was getting old, but his son was just like a young man. , He was so heroic, and he was about to replace him, how could Emperor Chengqing feel reconciled.

Tu Jingnian was not an ignorant person, he had already sensed the change in Emperor Chengqing's attitude, and he had no choice but to use his own son to show off his cuteness.Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, A Ming is about to turn one year old. This year's first birthday is very important for children, and it is necessary to grasp the week.

Even though Emperor Chengqing felt a little conflicted towards Tu Jingnian now, he still loved his grandson, and since such an unlucky thing happened before, he naturally needed to take care of his grandson's Zhou Chou Ceremony.In addition, out of the idea of ​​suppressing the East Palace, the Empress and Concubine De were able to end the confinement through this joy, and then, together with Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian, arranged the ceremony for the emperor's eldest grandson to catch Zhou.

Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian don't have their own sons, so naturally they don't intend to oppose Donggong, let alone expect Donggong to be able to treat them well after they take over the position, otherwise, a concubine who has to eat fast and chant Buddha is also a concubine. The concubine who can enjoy her old age is still a concubine, and the relationship with the next emperor directly determines their future, so they dare not make any small moves. Therefore, everyone was very honest, and made the Zhou Catch Ceremony extremely grand.

Tu Jingnian never believed that grasping Zhou could fix his life, but He Yu attached great importance to it. He started to train Amin's reaction ability early on, mainly by painting books and other colorful things, and then taught Amin to Catch, no matter how smart Amin is, he is still a child, he lacks patience, and he is not happy after playing for a few times. Tu Jingnian was noncommittal about this, and said directly: "There is no need to force Amin to practice. When the time comes, grab Zhou's table There will always be some auspicious things on the table, and nothing messy will appear, and you will get a lot of luck if you grab anything, why bother the child!"

Although He Yu disagreed in his heart, is grasping books the same as grasping pearls and jade?However, since the crown prince said so, she, as the crown princess, naturally couldn't demolish the crown prince, so she agreed.

Sure enough, on August [-]th, Zhuo Zhou's table was covered with all kinds of things, all kinds of things, which were very fancy and exquisite, and there were no rouge, pastries and other things on the table at all.

Emperor Chengqing came to the scene in person, took a look at the table case, and actually took off a small seal that he carried with him, and put it on the table, making everyone's thoughts float.Emperor Chengqing pretended not to notice, and said with a smile: "Where is our little birthday star today, why hasn't he come out yet?"

Tu Jingnian smiled and said, "Father, you don't know that this little guy, A Ming, loves to be clean. He stained his clothes before, but it doesn't count if he changed them to the outside. He has to clean them from the inside out." They've all been changed, and if you don't change, you'll cry, but count the time, and it's time to come out!"

Emperor Chengqing laughed when he heard it: "It's not that the royal family can't afford to change their clothes. Naturally, they have to change them all when they are dirty. You can treat him as a child and try to fool him! And you said he, you also talked to A Ming when you were young. Almost, you will cry when your clothes are dirty, and you will cry when you want to relieve yourself, just like a villain!"

While talking, the wet nurse came out with A Ming in her arms, and A Ming was in good spirits at the moment, when he saw Tu Jingnian and Emperor Cheng Qing, he immediately opened his arms and moved towards him, shouting: "Grandfather, Daddy! "He speaks relatively fluently now, especially the titles of several elders, which were a bit vague at first, but he became fluent after a while, and some people are crazy, and they are happy to see people they know.

Emperor Chengqing was delighted to hear that, and went over to take Amin from the nurse's arms, picked him up himself, and teased, "Come on, Amin, call me grandfather again!"

A Ming is also very face-saving, like a repeater, "Grandfather" and "Grandfather" yelled, and Emperor Chengqing also responded cheerfully, only thinking that the child in his arms is really too smart!

Grabbing the week began soon, Emperor Chengqing put Amin on the table and said with a smile: "Come on, Amin, pick one you like the most!"

A Ming didn't know if he understood. He looked back at Emperor Chengqing, then stood up a little swayingly, walked a few steps on the table, and then sat down again. The thing under the buttocks was pulled out, and it was an exquisite small inkstone that could be placed in the palm of the hand. The small inkstone had a green end, and a picture of a shepherd boy playing the flute was lightly carved on it. He didn't have any interest in his things, so he just sat there and scratched casually. During the period, he grabbed books, daggers, and abacus, but he didn't keep them in his hands at all, and quickly threw them aside.

It didn't take long for Amin to get annoyed. He turned around, opened his hands, and shouted, "Grandfather, hug, hug!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but Emperor Chengqing quickly reacted, stepped forward to hug Amin himself, and said with great interest: "It seems that Amin is catching Zhou because he is catching grandfather!"

Tu Jingnian also said with a smile: "Father also said that his son is a good man, how can your grandson be good, so I just set my sights on the biggest one!"

As he said that, Tu Jingnian deliberately pretended to be jealous: "Father, A Ming is my son, but now I know that I miss my grandfather all day long, and I forgot about my son as a father!"

"There's nothing wrong with thinking about grandpa. Grandpa loves you, right, Amin!" Emperor Chengqing teased Amin cheerfully, and the little guy cooperated very well, hugging Emperor Chengqing's neck tightly.

The people on one side naturally gave an overwhelming voice of admiration, praising the eldest grandson of the emperor for his cleverness and deep affection for Emperor Chengqing's grandson, which made Emperor Chengqing feel good, and then announced Amin's name.A Ming's generation is from the generation of Rui, and then he chose a character of Xi, which coincides with the time of his birth, and it also has the meaning of wisdom. From now on, the name of the emperor's eldest grandson will be Tu Ruixi, although this name sounds a bit Korean drama style, but after all, the meaning is very good, it can be said that he is tall, so Tu Jingnian naturally smiled and thanked Emperor Chengqing for giving his son the name.

A Ming's face was full of confusion, he didn't figure it out at all, he actually had an extra name, he just put his arms around Emperor Chengqing's neck, looked around, didn't know at all, many people, because of Emperor Chengqing's love for him, There was a sense of resentment in my heart.

Emperor Chengqing's ambivalence was later manifested to the extreme. He began to care about several young princes, promoted their biological mothers or adoptive mothers, and promoted Tu Jingping's future father-in-law and his father. His father-in-law also received grace and obtained an official position as a juren.Tu Jingrui and Tu Jingyi, who had just been reprimanded before, once again had a strong sense of existence, and Emperor Chengqing often brought them by his side.

However, Emperor Chengqing did not show any dissatisfaction with the East Palace. He still respected Tu Jingnian and loved A Ming very much.

Naturally, Tu Jingnian would not express any dissatisfaction with this, his attitude was still calm, he was almost obedient to Emperor Chengqing, and he was very filial. Emperor Chengqing loved meat, but his physical condition did not allow him to eat this kind of high-fat and high-protein food all the time. For things, Tu Jingnian specially found a skilled cook who specializes in vegetarian dishes, and taught the people in the imperial dining room to make meat-flavored vegetarian dishes, so that Emperor Chengqing could eat more vegetarian dishes.Usually, he would persuade Emperor Chengqing to go for a walk outside, mainly to play with A Ming. Now A Ming can walk steadily, and he likes to run and jump around more and more. Tu Jingnian is not willing to add any burden to a child who is only one year old. Let him learn a stable and decent demeanor, so let him be alive and kicking, but make the people around him almost exhausted every day, for fear that something will happen to this little ancestor.

Emperor Chengqing naturally understood Tu Jingnian's filial piety to him. At least his health was much better, and he was usually more energetic. He was happy to enjoy the family happiness with his children and grandchildren around his knees. I know what I know.

Seeing that another year has passed, there was another news from the Jia family that had caused such a big turmoil before. Zheng scolded on the spot that he would be a drunk and lustful person in the future, and walked away.

Although this conclusion is still very consistent with Jia Baoyu, many caring people feel that this matter is only prepared for the realization. After all, whoever catches a child will get a box of rouge, and it is not the daughter-in-law of the family. The matter of being born with jade before made the Jia family already on the cusp of the storm. Many people have a taboo for this child who has a vision and is bound to have a great fortune in the future. Confused, but the Jia family made such a move, which naturally showed that their child was just a lustful dude, so that the people above could put down their guard.

God knows, this kind of thing was purely a coincidence, but it was a mistake. After Emperor Chengqing heard about it, he couldn't help being in a good mood. He laughed and didn't care so much about the Jia family's affairs.

In Jia's house, apart from Jia Zheng being bitter about his son's choice of rouge, the rest of the people didn't respond to it. The old lady and Mrs. Wang were investigating at home, who put the rouge box in the house? When it comes to Zhuo Zhou's table, after all, the rouge is bright in color and smells sweet, so it's no wonder that children don't like it!But no matter how hard they checked, they couldn't find it out. Everyone swore that the rouge box was definitely not in the things they prepared. After disposing of several servants who were in charge of catching the items that day, the matter came to an end without a problem.The old lady firmly believed that someone had framed her extraordinary grandson, so she loved Jia Baoyu even more, and took him by her side, almost never leaving her side.Jia Baoyu is also a more worry-free person at the moment, she often laughs when she sees people, and rarely cries, and she is also very close to Shi Taijun, and she is very precocious, which naturally makes Shi Taijun love her unceasingly.

And not long after Jia Baoyu caught Zhou, good news came from Yangzhou. Jia Min, who had been married to Lin Ruhai for ten years and had nothing to do, was finally pregnant. He ordered a lot of gifts to send to Yangzhou, and found some experienced mothers to serve Jia Min. At the same time, he made excuses and gave Jia Baoyu a lot of good things.

And Emperor Chengqing, who was getting healthier and healthier, announced the southern tour again after the summer. Concubine De and the Empress, who got the quota for the tour, were very happy.
