[The Legend of Zhen Huan] Rebirth of An Lingrong

"My lord, the House of Internal Affairs has sent the annual rewards, and the masters of other palaces have also given the rewards." Qingyu brought Baojuan and the others with a lot of things from outside, and brought a lot of things. A cold wind.

"Come into the room to warm up, put your things away first, and tidy up later." Ling Rong put down the book in his hand and said gently.

"Yes, my lord." Several people put their things aside, and leaned over to the stove to warm up.

"It's really cold today, with heavy wind and snow, and it will be New Year's Eve soon, and I don't know when the snow will stop." Qingyu muttered.

"It will naturally stop when it's time to stop." Ling Rong said softly, looking at the book in his hand.

After warming up for a while, Qingyu took the little girls and started tidying things up.

"Why hasn't Liuli come back yet?" Seeing that Qingyu was almost cleaned up, Ling Rong asked.

"My lord, I forgot, Liuli went to collect this month's monthly silver, and I will be back soon after thinking about it." Qingyu said.

"Yeah." Ling Rong put down the book in his hand, looked at the snow outside, and murmured, "I don't know that the plum blossoms in the plum garden are still blooming under such heavy snow."

"Plum blossoms bloom every year. How can I be afraid of this little snowstorm? My lord loves to worry about it. However, no matter how beautiful the plum blossoms are in such a big snowstorm, my lord can't go out to see them. What if I'm sick?" Qingyu served from the kitchen. Come and present the bird's nest with rock sugar to Lingrong.

"Understood, nagging." Ling Rong was not annoyed, took the bird's nest and drank it slowly.

"Little master." Liuli came in from the outside, carrying a snowstorm.

"Are you back? Let's warm up first, Qingyu has stewed bird's nest, you two should drink a bowl too." Ling Rong said.

"Thank you, little master." Liuli warmed her hands, put away all the orders she brought, and went to the small kitchen.After a while, Liuli came out of the small kitchen and said to Ling Rong: "My lord, I'm going to get the order today. The manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr. Huang, said that there is not enough gold paper for wrapping things. The servants only got a little gold paper. The ones below are all silver papers, how will my little master use them when returning gifts at the end of this year?"

"Just save some money. Wrap the gift in gold paper for Mr. Ma's family and the family's return. You can do the rest as you see fit. I'm just a permanent presence, so it doesn't hinder anything." said with concern.

"Young master is too good-natured! This yellow rule is the most snobbish, and he must have used all the good things to curry favor with others. If this thing is not enough, it will deprive us of our share! It is really disgusting! A few days ago The servant girl heard that Wan, who has been ill for a long time and has no favor, is often in the palace, and even the tea and silver charcoal are deducted!" Qingyu said indignantly.

"Oh? There is such a thing, so this month Wan's regular stay in the palace can be fully claimed?" Ling Rong asked after taking a sip of tea.

"No, the servant girl heard that the quotas and annual rewards in Suiyuxuan have been deducted a lot. The chief eunuch of Suiyuxuan and his two apprentices have left Suiyuxuan, and the maids have also left a few times. , there are not many people serving in Suiyuxuan right now." Qingyu said.

"Did Guan often walk around Huigui's place these days?" Ling Rong asked.

"Ever since Mrs. Huigui got pregnant last time, she has been shutting herself up and not seeing any guests. Except for the empress dowager, the emperor, and the empress who send people to visit from time to time, it is difficult for even a bird to fly into the chrysanthemum hall. Guan Changzai actually sent people to Cunju Hall a few times, but they were stopped at the door and they didn't get in." Qingyu said.

"So that's how it is." Ling Rong continued to read the book that day, but stopped talking.

The next day, the snow finally stopped, and the long-lost sunshine brought some warmth to the icy Forbidden City. There was still one day before the New Year's Eve dinner.

"My lord, the Mansion, the Ma Mansion, the General's Mansion, the Eldest Young Master and the Xiao Mansion have all sent people to bring New Year's gifts." Qingyu Liuli led a group of court ladies and eunuchs to file in, each with a lot in their hands. thing.

"Who is here? Did you bring home all the gifts you prepared!" Ling Rong asked excitedly.

"Don't worry, my lord, this servant always remembers my lord's instructions, and sent home everything that was not left behind." Qingyu comforted her.

"That's good, I don't know if everything is going well at home." Ling Rong said melancholy.

"The old madam and madam were afraid that the young master would miss them, so they specially sent An Fu to deliver the annual gift, and asked An Fu to bring a message to the young master, saying that everything is fine at home, so that the young master can rest assured." Liu Li gently held the mausoleum. Karate.

"It's good to be safe." Ling Rong sat by the bed with a melancholy look on his face.

"My lord, I'm going to take people to tidy things first," Qingyu said.

"Go ahead, Liu Li will stay and serve you." Ling Rong waved his hand.

"Yes." Qingyu retreated with a group of people and went to the warehouse.

In the inner room, only Lingrong and Liuli were left.

"My lord, these are the things sent by the mansion and Aunt Xiao, please take a look, my lord." Liuli took out two rolls of tightly clothed cloth from her bosom, opened them, and found a large amount of banknotes and densely packed paper rolls. letter.

Ling Rongzai carefully read the letters twice, picked a few out of them, and then burned all the rest of the letters, Liuli hurriedly packed away the paper ashes.

"Write these down and burn them." Lingrong handed the few pieces of paper to Liuli, Liuli took it and saw that it was her own mother's handwriting!The paper is full of various dietary taboos and drug taboos, especially for pregnant women and children, which are very detailed.

After reading the letter, Ling Rong was in the mood to sort out those bank notes. The amount of each bank note was not large, but the number was enough, and the total amount was still quite a lot. Most of them were sent from home, and some were from Ling Rong. Income from industries in the capital.Ling Rong rubbed the bank note in his hand, feeling the love and support from his family, and felt warm in his heart.

Soon, Qingyu also brought in all the rituals, leaving most of the superficial items in the warehouse, and some of them were brought into the house alone.These are some things that are used in daily life, there are a few expensive heads, and the rest are mostly small objects for people to appreciate, so they are stored in the box in the inner room.

"My lord, have you put away the golden melon seeds and pearls?" Qingyu asked while holding two small boxes.

"Prepare a few heavier purses, and put away the rest." Ling Rong said.

"Hey, this servant knows." Qingyu went to the cabinet to find a few festive red purses and brought them out, each stuffed with two gold melon seeds, two pearls and some gold and silver rice balls, stuffed bulgingly.After filling the purse, Qingyu put away the rest.

"My lord, the weather is fine today, may my lord go out for a walk to get some air?" Qingyu suggested.

"It's okay, after so many days of being bored in this room, my bones have become soft from sleeping. It's rare that the sun is shining today, so let's go for a walk." Ling Rong tidied up his clothes and got up and walked towards the door. Rong put on a thick cloak, and Qingyu stuffed a warm hand stove into the mausoleum.Ling Rong smiled slightly, feeling very happy.

The snow on the ground has been cleared by the servants long ago, the road is not difficult to walk, and it is very easy for Ling Rong to wear thick-soled cotton boots.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the gate of "Changxi Hall", he met a group of people from Meizhuang, Ling Rong had no choice but to hurry up to pay his respects.After greetings, the two people went out together as a group.

"I haven't seen my sister for a long time. My sister's complexion has improved a lot, but her body has recovered?" Ling Rong asked after seeing that Mei Zhuang's expression was very peaceful.

"I'm worried about my sister, there's nothing serious about it. How is my sister recently?" Mei Zhuang asked with a pleasant face.

"Everything is fine, except that it's very windy and snowy these days, and you can't get out of the door, but it's boring people." Lingrong complained little.

"My younger sister grew up in the south, so it's inevitable that she can't adapt to the northern winter. The snow in this winter is better, and she can bear it without being blown by the wind. It will be really inconvenient when the ice and snow melt in spring. Going out." Mei Zhuang said with a light smile.

The two chatted for a while, before Ling Rong asked: "Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve family banquet, do you want my sister to attend?"

"It's too cold at night, and I've been drowsy these days, and I can't bear it anymore, so the emperor promised not to participate." Mei Zhuang said.

"My sister's body is important. There are too many people at the family banquet and the time is too long. It is really not suitable for my sister's current body. It would be great if I could not participate." To avoid being the target of public criticism, it would be unbeautiful to have something wrong.

After all, Mei Zhuang was pregnant, and after walking for a long time, he felt a little weak, so he was escorted back to Cunju Hall by a group of people.

Ling Rong didn't go back together, but stayed in the imperial garden for a while, and met a few old acquaintances one after another. It seems that the heavy snow for several days has indeed spoiled many people.It's always inevitable that you come and go to fight a few times, but everyone is still amicable considering the big day tomorrow, and they dispersed soon.

The second day, New Year's Eve.All the palaces and halls are decorated with lanterns and streamers, full of joy.The maids and eunuchs all put on new winter clothes, and the auspicious words popped out like no money, and the rewards they received made everyone laugh.

Naturally, Ling Rong would not be stingy about rewarding money, and each of the servants in his palace made a big red envelope.The court ladies and eunuchs who served close to him were even more generously rewarded.In addition, those stewards who hold important positions have also been rewarded with considerable rewards, which can be said to be a waste of money.If you only rely on those annual rewards and salaries, don't drink the northwest wind.

After lunch, after Ling Rong woke up from a nap, Qingyu began to dress up Ling Rong.

"Why be so nervous, it's just normal dressing, there are so many people around, who would notice what kind of hairpin I'm wearing?" Ling Rong could only sigh helplessly when he saw Qingyu picking out hairpins one after another.

"How can you be so casual? Today is New Year's Eve, and the young masters of other people's homes are all dressed up, and the young master can't be inferior to others!" Sapphire swayed a pair of bat patterns inlaid with glass beads and trembling golden steps. Said on both sides of the bun.

"This step shake is too flamboyant." Ling Rong frowned slightly and said, "Let's replace it with the pair of pearl and jasper step shakes."

"It's too plain." Qingyu muttered while changing the hairpin.

"What a silly girl, take a closer look at the bead in the middle of the hairpin." Ling Rong said with a smile.

"Huh?" Qingyu looked at the hairpin in her hand in confusion.

"Is it Ye Mingzhu?!" Qingyu suddenly realized.

"Although this Ye Mingzhu is not big, it is worth the value of five golden step shakers. It is thanks to Tian'er's blessing that I got these two." Ling Rong stroked the small bead, feeling a little nostalgic.

Qingyu didn't disturb Ling Rong's thoughts, but picked a few festive and delicate flowers from the jewelry box to embellish Ling Rong's hair.

When I was ready, it was almost time, so I changed to a shorter flowerpot bottom and went out.

Mausoleum's time was well grasped, neither early nor late, unobtrusive, and after seeing the ceremony with the other concubines, they took their seats.Soon there were many people coming, only the concubine Hua, the empress and the emperor were not seated, so everyone had to wait patiently.

Concubine Hua's thoughts are well known to everyone. Given Concubine Hua's power, no one dares to speak out loudly, but there are many private dissatisfaction.Ling Rong didn't pay attention to these things, but just looked at the pot of Zhengyan red plums, feeling a little ups and downs.

After all, Concubine Hua arrived before the queen and emperor took their seats. Although it was just a matter of front and back, it was not considered a breach of courtesy.

As soon as the emperor and empress arrived, everyone stood up and greeted each other, and the family banquet entered the topic.In fact, it's nothing more than a boring thing about singing and dancing and drinking and having fun, it's very boring.

Ling Rong remembered that the emperor had left the banquet for a red plum, and soon accepted Yu Yinger as an official daughter.It is very likely that this happened on New Year's Eve, and Yu Ying'er must have borrowed Zhen Huan's light to gain favor, otherwise the emperor would not have given Yu Ying'er to death just because of Zhen Huan's words.

The current Yu Ying'er should still be a little palace maid in Yimei Garden, maybe she can go to Yimei Garden to watch a good show.

Ling Rong excused himself from too much alcohol, and left the hall with the glazed sapphire. It happened that Nian Gengyao sent someone to report the good news of the victory, and everyone was too busy singing their praises to pay attention to whether a little resident would go or stay.Mausoleum left the hall smoothly and slipped away to Yimei Garden.
