Ning Chen Ling Xiao

Chu Yifeng received a lot of rewards from the concubine when he came back from the army. Ling Xiao came when he was at a loss, looked at the rewards in the room and smiled: "I told my aunt that you will come to my house in the next year she promised passed."

"Really?!" Chu Yifeng's eyes lit up, and Ling Xiao rubbed his head: "But I still have to enter the palace when I'm [-], and I think I'll be back on the first day of the new year."

That's not bad, the two of them stayed in hiding all day, the more Chu Yifeng thought about it, the more suitable it became, and he said with a smile: "Of course I have to enter the palace for those two days, hey, why did you tell mother? I really agreed."

"It's just that it's boring for you to be alone in the mansion, so what else can you say?" How could you tell Chu Yifeng what you made up in the East Palace? When I got up, the ground dragon was burning well in the house, like a spring day. Ling Xiao picked up a pine nut and ate it, and said with a smile, "It's not so warm in my house. If it's too cold, I can only burn a few more charcoal pots. When the time comes Don't be too cold."

Chu Yifeng also sat down to eat with a smile, and said with a smile, "Of course I don't mind." Thinking about it again, he got up and said, "Oh, I'm going to pack my things..."

Ling Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and pulled him to sit down again, and the two of them sat on the couch together, Ling Xiao smiled and fed an amber walnut to Chu Yifeng's mouth: "There are girls cleaning up, why are you in a hurry?"

"Hey..." Chu Yifeng sat down with a few silly smiles, and said, "Is your house lively during the New Year? Hey, bring over all the firecrackers in my house, and the New Year's goods. Let's see what else there is." Do you want to take it with you?"

Ling Xiao knew that he was excited, so he didn't interrupt his good mood, nodded and smiled: "Well... let's pass the firecrackers, I will accompany you to the snowfield to set off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year. There is no shortage of these in the mansion, why don't you share them with the servants in the mansion, you don't need to bring much with you when you go there." He lowered his voice and said softly, "Just use mine."

Originally, there was nothing that made Ling Xiao say something like that, Chu Yifeng blushed, and wanted to say something but couldn't figure out what Ling Xiao said wrong. He was stupid, so he could only be honest. Let Ling Xiao tease him.

In the end, it was naturally all dispatched by Ling Xiao, who picked out the sent items, those New Year’s goods and the things sent by Zhuangzi, which were very cherished, and also added some things in the library to several elders outside Chu Yifeng’s palace. In the mansion, all the rest was distributed to the slaves in Prince Ying's mansion, and they were given an extra month's monthly money. Everyone was very grateful and dedicated to Chu Yifeng.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, six books were closed, and the officers and men with low official positions in the army were also on vacation. The two of them officially nestled in the Xingyun courtyard of Shoukanghou Mansion. With the care of the Crown Princess, His Royal Highness is still very welcome in the Hou Mansion.

In fact, this prince is very easy to dismiss, Chu Yifeng is not arrogant, and he doesn't think there is anything bad about living in Ling Xiao's place. He even thinks it is better than his own Prince Ying's Mansion. You can see Ling Xiao's things everywhere. Ling Xiao who accidentally discovered Little clothes used to make him happy for a long time.Ling Xiao didn't care either, he didn't let people come to disturb him in his yard on weekdays, and let Chu Yifeng hunt for treasures everywhere.

It is true that Xingyun Courtyard is not as warm as King Ying's Mansion. Ling Xiao asked people to gather a few more carbon basins, and the room is also warm.

Years ago, Ling Xiao had to go to the front to take care of some things besides being intimate with Chu Yifeng, and next year, Jing Yu was a little too busy, so Mrs. Shi asked Ling Xiao to help. , Ling Xiao sorted out the things he wanted to send to Ling Zhi first, packed up the car full of things and sent them over, Ling Zhi sent the return gift over on the same day, and it was also very generous, followed by Liao Ting.

Liao Ting is now the housekeeper's wife of Shi's mansion. Seeing that Ling Xiao saluted first and thanked him, she smiled and said: "Second Mistress said that the young master likes everything that the young master gave. There is nothing good at home, so just let it go." , let the young master take care of his health, and kowtow to the old man, the aunt, and the old man. She is fine at home, so don't worry, and I will come with my uncle to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year."

Ling Xiao asked a lot of things about Ling Zhi at home, Liao Ting answered them one by one, and finally said with a smile: "Young master, don't worry about everything, the master and wife in the house are thinking of the great kindness of our aunt and wife, and love the second grandma. Plus, even if we don't talk about this, as far as our lady's character is concerned, who wouldn't love it? I heard that our lady will take care of the family when she is in her mother's house. The lady took care of it, the wife and the grandma ignored these things, and praised our lady for clearing up this mess after she came to the mansion, she was very reliant, and the servants in the mansion also respected her .”

He said with a smile again: "Young master and Second Mistress are still so affectionate. A few days ago, Uncle accompanied Second Mistress to the Qianli Temple. I can't describe the scene, but that's probably how the storyteller said, raising eyebrows and respecting each other like a guest. There is no one in the house who does not praise it."

Ling Xiao has heard about these things, and now this young couple is well-known in the imperial city for their love. Everyone secretly sighs that Ling Zhi lost his mother when he was young. Who would have thought that in the end he would be a lucky one, and his natal family would become more and more prosperous. , The husband's family is also thriving now, the mother-in-law is kind and the sister-in-law is harmonious, the most rare thing is to have a husband who is motivated and loves Mrs. Gu, this is probably the model of happiness.

Ling Xiao asked a few more things, then gave Liao Ting a reward and sent it back, Jing Yu went to take care of her brother for a while, came back to see Ling Zhi's return gift, and sighed a few words, thinking about what was on her mind, seeing Looking at Ling Xiao's face, he said softly: "Girl Yi... I have drawn up a gift list for the eldest lady. The second young master has a look, and if there is nothing inappropriate, I will send it over."

Ling Xiao took it over and took a look, and couldn't help but sigh Jing Yu's understanding of current affairs, she knew that she and Ling Yi were not getting along, looking at this gift list, it was all in accordance with the old rules, there was nothing added, it was not worth it all together Half of what I sent to Ling Zhi today, Ling Xiao glanced at Jing Yu's face, he could probably guess what Jing Yu was thinking, as long as he couldn't offend himself, as usual, no one could make a mistake. When Ling Zhi returned the gift, he sent a list of gifts, maybe he would add some more to show his generosity and tolerance in a moment of soft-heartedness.

Ling Xiao smiled, he doesn't dislike Jing Yu's cleverness, he doesn't like people who are too stupid, a good woman is someone who is a little smart and can follow his wishes.Jing Yu has been very sensible since she got married, and Ling Xiao is still very satisfied, but now she still guessed her mind wrong.

"Grandma's gift list is a bit inappropriate..." Ling Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's not wrong to follow the gift given to in-laws by a concubine after she gets married, but our eldest lady is not a regular wife who married in the past, but a concubine. concubine."

"There has never been such a rule in Shoukanghou's mansion, so it is necessary for me to make a way this year."

Jing Yu's face turned pale, and she couldn't help but clenched the handkerchief in her hand. The maids and women in the room were also shocked. The family's gifts to married aunts and grandmas have always been generous, and Ling Yi's gift is already too little. , but also to reduce?

Ling Xiao's voice was obviously calm, but everyone in the room felt fear, Ling Xiao chuckled: "From now on, for all concubine daughters of my Marquis Mansion who marry as concubines, the etiquette will be halved according to the old rules."

Ling Xiao raised the corner of his eyes and looked at Jing Yu: "What does Grandma think?"

Jing Yu nodded quickly. Ling Xiao usually called her "sister-in-law", but today she was already timid, and she was a little scared when she saw that the gift list she had drawn didn't meet Ling Xiao's wishes. Steady my heart and said softly: "I didn't think it through clearly. I'm also stupid. I always only dare to follow the rules of my aunt and grandma. I dare not make a mistake. Now..."

"Now Grandma is blaming me for not following my aunt's old rules?" Ling Xiao interrupted, "Don't worry, Grandma, I will naturally tell my aunt about this."

"No, the second young master misunderstood me." Jing Yu said hastily, "I mean that I will follow any regulations in the mansion. This is the first time I have done this. I am young and ignorant. After the example comes, it will naturally follow this line, which is very appropriate."

Ling Xiao smiled: "Sister-in-law really understands, this is the best, come..."

Ling Xiao took out the gift from Ling Zhi for Jing Yu and his elder brother and handed it to Jing Yu's girl, and said with a smile: "I cut it in half because I didn't want to wrong Missy, think about it carefully, Missy." Miss is a daughter of gold in our family, but what about in someone else's house? It's just a concubine. We sent so many gifts with great fanfare, how can people return it? It doesn't matter if the gift is light, it's okay to say now, wait until Yu What happens after the eldest son of the mansion marries his main wife? I give more gifts to a concubine’s natal family than to the main wife. Naturally, I have to think more about her."

It's not that Ling Xiao is not good at things in the house, sometimes he just doesn't care about it. Of course, the more important thing is that he used to be incapable of being the master or family, but it's different now, compared to Xia Lan and Ling Yi's tricks Ling Xiao's actions are more lethal, and he wins in one point: the name is justified.

Jing Yu was also convinced by the generous gift that Ling Zhi gave her. Since she married into Shoukanghou's mansion, the two young masters and young ladies from the first line have never treated her harshly, which is much better than the decent sister-in-law.

When Jing Yu was about to say something, Ling Xiao ordered someone to bring the things over, Ling Xiao took it and handed it to Jing Yu: "This is a lock that I ordered someone to give my brother a few days ago, so that the children will be happy during the festival. "

Jing Yu saw that it was a pure gold longevity lock with precious stones embedded in it, which was extremely delicate.Jing Yu knew it was precious just by looking at it, and quickly said: "It cost the second young master again, I thanked the second uncle on my brother's behalf."

Ling Xiao smiled indifferently: "I have to trouble my sister-in-law to draw up another gift list." Jing Yu nodded and complied, and Ling Xiao smiled faintly. Who dares to say that he is partial and harsh to the concubine?He has always been kind to Ling Xuan's family. As for the married aunt, who is to blame?Who made her lose her integrity and become a concubine?Should!

At this time, Jing Yu and the rest of the mansion hadn't discovered that the power in the mansion had not passed through the hands of the old master Ling Ruxue for a day, and it was slowly and naturally handed over to the second young master Ling Xiao.

On the 24th day, the palace came to pick up Chu Yifeng early, and Chu Yifeng didn't enter the palace for a few days to greet the prince and concubine. After telling Ling Xiao, he followed the father-in-law who came to pick him up from the palace. The grandfather kowtowed to please Ann. The old emperor also felt pity for his grandson. Such a tender grandson became a widower just like himself. How pitiful, maybe the lively reunion at the end of the year touched the old emperor's heart The old emperor couldn't help thinking of Empress Wei. The former empress was also a strange woman. After the incident, she ran around with Chu Qilong and assisted her husband all the way to become emperor. There is also a virtuous act of admonishing the sage to save the [-] speech officials. His contribution is to prevent Empress Changsun from Li Shimin and Empress Ma from Zhu Yuanzhang.

While critiquing the papers, the old emperor missed Empress Wei with tearful eyes. He did not forget to ask Chu Yifeng what he wanted from his grandson to respond to him. Unfortunately, Chu Yifeng really couldn't remember his dead wife's voice and smile, and couldn't respond to the old emperor's sadness. The old emperor talked to himself for a while and looked at Chu Yifeng a little unhappy. He was so sad and lost his temper here. His little grandson was very dignified and stable. You're a widower, why don't you understand my sadness? Are children today so cold?"

If other princes and grandchildren heard this, they would probably have been scared to death, but Chu Yifeng's nerves were not so delicate that he couldn't understand it, so he could only say naively: "My grandson and Princess Xianying have only met once, or...she still Wearing a gauze hat, my grandson really can't remember what she looks like."

The old emperor sighed: "Feng'er is still blessed. It's better to leave without remembering... Forget it, go, and accompany me at the family dinner tonight. I haven't seen you for many days."

Chu Yifeng kowtowed, and was about to turn around, but turned around and walked up to the old emperor, took out his handkerchief to wipe the old emperor's tears, and whispered: "Grandpa, don't cry, I actually miss grandma too. "

It has to be said that Chu Yifeng always has such an ability to make people like and feel distressed inadvertently. The old emperor feels a lot better now, and the respect and indifference among the closest relatives of the royal family is greater than the affection. This kind of warmth has benefited the old emperor, and it has continued until now At the banquet in the evening.

The royal family will have a family feast every year on the [-]th. All the royal family in the imperial city will be invited to celebrate the new year together to show their intimacy. Quite a few, coupled with the thoughtfulness of the little padded jacket Chu Yifeng, the old emperor was in high spirits all night.

Chu Yifeng concentrated on eating, and when someone suggested wine, he drank it too. No one mentioned that he would not take the initiative to toast. When everyone was too drunk, Chu Yifeng was one of the few sober people.

There was still a while before leaving the house, Chu Yifeng smiled while holding his small hand stove, the New Year gift Ling Xiao gave him last year, he used it as soon as winter came.

"My lord." Eunuch Zhang approached and said in a low voice, "When I came here, the young master told you to go to the Tingfeng Pavilion outside Tingfeng Pavilion at this time, and said that I have something for you."

At this time, the key to the palace gate had already been released, and it was impossible for Ling Xiao to come in because of his extraordinary abilities. Chu Yifeng thought that Ling Xiao had hidden something for him there, so he immediately became interested, and left the banquet while the people at the banquet were off guard Follow Eunuch Zhang.

The Tingfeng Pavilion was built outside the Tingfeng Pavilion. It used to be a good place to watch the stars and the moon. Chu Yifeng dressed up and took Eunuch Zhang up. He looked around, but there was nothing wrong with it.

"How did the young master explain it?"

Eunuch Zhang was about to answer, when a sentry firecracker sprang out from the west of the sky, Chu Yifeng turned his head to look at it, Eunuch Zhang smiled: "My lord, to the west is Shoukanghou's Mansion." He said and retreated to the Tingfeng Pavilion.

Chu Yifeng stared blankly at the direction just now, but for a moment, tens of thousands of fireworks bloomed together in an instant above the black night sky!

"Ling Xiao..." Chu Yifeng laughed, his dark eyes reflected thousands of stars, he knew that Ling Xiao was on the other side of the palace wall, and Chu Yifeng didn't know how to express his current mood , could only keep whispering his lover's name softly, Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao.

The big canopy of fireworks spread out in the sky, and the fire trees and silver flowers are never night.Ling Xiao is not a nasty lover. After being together with Chu Yifeng, there are only a handful of sweet words. Chu Yifeng also understands that the relationship between the two men will inevitably be rough. At the beginning, Chu Yifeng was always a little worried. Be a little passive, Ling Xiao is the only person he has pursued and pursued since he was a child, and the only person who has praised him to heaven.

It is inevitable that Chu Yifeng will worry and panic sometimes, but Ling Xiao has this ability to let Chu Yifeng know that he loves him all the time, and has always loved him, just like the fireworks all over the sky, silent, and Tell Chu Yifeng fiercely how much he loves him.

Chu Yifeng sat down slowly, holding a small hand stove, watching the fireworks in the sky, thinking of the person who was setting off fireworks for him.
