"I heard that the emperor is going to tour the south again after the New Year's Eve." Wanzhao thought of the news that was spreading wildly in the harem, turned around and said to Concubine Yi, "Have you heard, sister?"

"I heard, it is said that the prince, concubine and the second elder brother of Yuqing Palace all have to follow." Concubine Yi hugged her chubby little grandson while teasing him and said to Zhang Jia who came to pay her respects, " Have you and Yinqi also received the order?"

Zhang Jia shook her head dignifiedly, and said: "Master has been busy managing the affairs of the House of Internal Affairs during this time, and fell asleep when he returned to elder brother's office. My daughter-in-law sees that he has really studied hard these days, so she doesn't want to ask He came here for these non-existent things. According to my daughter-in-law, if Khan Ama wants to go, he will definitely give us an order."

"That's right." Concubine Yi looked at the little bun in her arms, saw that he turned his head as if he was looking for a nurse, guessed that he was probably hungry too, so she handed him over to the nurse at the side to feed him, and then He said to Zhang Jiashi, "That kid Yinqi forgets everything as soon as he starts working hard. You remember to ask someone to cook more soup for him, and don't forget to tell him to rest well."

"Daughter-in-law knows." Zhang Jiashi thought of Bai Jiashi and Ma Jiashi who were in the backyard in the past few nights and went to the study to seduce him by sending stewed soup to him, but he was reprimanded by him, and added another sentence, "It's just that the master has been staying in the study room recently. Er Niang also knows that we can enter where the study room is important. No, Bai Jia and Ma Jia were punished not long ago."

Concubine Yi had heard about those things, she thought for a while and said: "Forget it, you can leave it to Xiao Linzi beside him."

"Yes."

Wanzhao listened to it, and felt that Zhang Jia's move was really clever.If you can't get in by yourself, other women shouldn't take the opportunity to seduce fifth elder brother.In the future, when the stew is handed over to Xiao Linzi, Xiao Linzi will still have to recite Fujin's blessings in Yinqi's ear. In the long run, Yinqi's heart will definitely be on Zhang Jiashi.

Alas, when will I be able to drink daughter-in-law tea.Thinking of Yinyou's marriage, Wanzhao also felt a little overwhelmed.

In October, Kangxi formally issued a decree to honor the Empress Dowager's southern tour.He also decreed that everyone from the eldest elder brother to the fourteenth elder brother should accompany him in the car, and those who have Fujin should bring Fujin with them.In addition, the sons of each elder brother were named, "Hong" generation, the first elder brother's son is Hong Yu, the prince's son is Hong Xu, the third elder brother's son is Hong Qing, and the fourth elder brother's son is Hong Hui , the fifth elder brother's son is Hongsheng.As for the other young grandsons, they will not be named this time.

Sanfujin gave birth to another elder brother to the third elder brother half a month ago, and this time, he was able to accompany him on the southern tour and Khan Ama personally named his grandson, so he was very happy.Even if Mrs. Liu gave birth to Gege together with her, she didn't feel any jealousy anymore, and let others take good care of her.

Si Fujin doesn't care anymore, she has a child and everything is fulfilled, and the Li family in the older brother's office is making a fuss and still can't give birth to a child; anyway, the person who loves her the most now is her, and the Li family is no matter how many tricks There is no way.Besides, my master is now in charge of the household department, and he is busy flexing his muscles, so he can't care about those women in the backyard who are fighting for favor.

Qifujin was thinking that during this period of time, she had to win back her husband's heart no matter what.Ever since that side Fujin was brought in, the Lord has treated her not as well as before.Now that Fujin Nalashi is pregnant, she is even more anxious. She only blames herself for not being able to hug her husband so that others can take advantage of it. Now that concubine Ergen feels that Luoshi is more favored than her. .Now her mother-in-law doesn't like her, and the empress dowager has criticisms about her, even her family's actions towards her are heartbroken, she has to work harder!

Among the concubines in the harem, there were not many people who followed the tour, only Concubine Cui, Wanzhao, Concubine Cheng, Noble Wang and Noble Borzigit.Wanzhao, who has traveled with him several times, knows that the officials in Jiangnan have a lot of beauties waiting to be dedicated to Kangxi. Among the five of them, there are nobles Wang and Borzigit. Apart from the effect of warming the bed, the rest is just to support the stage.

If so, Wanzhao and Concubine Cheng are also full of expectations for this tour, it is rare to be able to go out of the palace, can you not be happy?The time for the southern tour was set at the beginning of spring in February. Wanzhao had someone pack up a few women's ponchos and thick flag attire, and brought a few sets of clothes that ordinary Manchurian women often wear, as well as a box of jewelry. .

"Master is happy, just like before the master promised to take you to ride a horse." Mu Jin laughed.

"It's fine to go out of the palace for a walk, as staying here every day will bore me to death." Wan Zhao looked at the two flag dresses slumped on the bed, and finally chose the light purple one with folded branches and flowers, which was pink and tender. The color of the color is not suitable for her, or light purple looks more mature and noble.

After choosing these, Wanzhao said: "Chen promises to be pregnant, everything must be done carefully. After I leave the palace, Mu Jin and Ziying will both go and have a look. If there is anything to do, I will directly go back to the three ladies in charge of the palace affairs, you know?" ?”

"The servant knows."

February [-]th is a good time to travel. Kangxi took a group of concubines, elder brothers and daughter-in-laws out in a mighty way, following the empress dowager's purpose of inspecting the river works in person and persuading farmers to teach.Just when Yu Jia entered Shandong, Concubine Rong sent a message: Concubine Min is not in danger, and now she is bedridden.

After getting the news, the thirteenth elder brother was also unhappy, and finally couldn't help but begged Kangxi to let him return to Beijing to serve his sick mother-in-law.Kangxi has always emphasized "filial piety", and after thinking about it, he agreed to Brother Thirteen's request.On the other hand, Yinyi seemed unhappy when he heard that his thirteenth elder brother, whom he had a good time with, was leaving, and it was not until Wanzhao coaxed him for a long time that he finally cheered up.Later Wanzhao also asked people to inquire about it, and it was said that Concubine Min's condition improved a lot after Elder Brother Thirteen returned, so she finally felt at ease.

Uncle Kangxi told her last night that after returning from the southern tour, he will choose an auspicious day for Yinyou to marry Dong Eshi. Yinyou should also take out the decorations that were removed from the bottom of the deposit box, and replace them if they are damaged. One changed.

When he arrived in Jiangning, Yu Jia still lived in the weaving Yamen of Jiangning.Compared with ten years ago, the decoration here is more ornate.Wan Zhao has always been curious about where Cao Yin got so much money to build the yamen, even if he is short of public funds, he probably can't get so much money out.But Wanzhao forgot that there are many merchants in the Jiangnan area, and there are some merchants who pay some money; moreover, there is Li Xu here.

"I send my greetings to all the ladies and young masters." Cao Yin's mother, Sun Shi, Kangxi's former nurse, came in to say hello on crutches.They had just finished tidying up and gathered in Concubine Cui's courtyard to talk, when they heard that the woman from Cao's family had come to pay her respects.

"Get up quickly, old majesty, and give me a seat." Concubine Kui is the highest-ranking concubine accompanying the driver, so she is the one who comes out to entertain.

Mrs. Sun didn't shirk, she thanked Madam Yan for the stool before sitting down.

It was only then that Wanzhao noticed that there were several women and three girls behind her.Not only Wanzhao noticed it, but Concubine Cui also saw it, and asked with a smile, "Is this a girl from Master Cao's family?"

"Exactly." Sun replied, "Lan'er, Qin'er, and Xi'er, please greet all the ladies and the young master."

A few delicate little girls are all dressed in pink dresses and wearing double buns.The difference is that Cao Lan wears beeswax bead flowers on her head, Cao Qin wears coral turquoise bead flowers on her head, and the youngest Cao Xi wears a red gold wreath around her neck.Cao Lan was already engaged, so she went back after showing up for a while. Cao Qin is ten years old this year, and Cao Xi is eight years old this year. They are both tender and tender.

Knowing that Mrs. Sun was the emperor's wet nurse, everyone had to treat these girls with a bit of care, and the gifts they gave were also good things made in the palace.Wanzhao felt that the girls were not surprised at all when they saw these things, they seemed to be used to it.The hairpin bracelets on their heads and hands also look better than those on the heads of Nobles Wang and Borzigit.

This Cao family is really a wealthy party, is the oil and water in Jiangnan really so rich?

"Have you all met a few girls from the Cao family today?"

It's rare that Kangxi stays with her tonight, so Concubine Kui naturally takes good care of her.After listening to Kangxi's question.Concubine Xi paused as she changed his clothes, before she said nonchalantly, "Yes, they are all quiet and well-behaved little girls. My younger sisters and I also like them when we see them."

"That's good." Kangxi nodded, "His second daughter will be ten years old this year."

"It happens to be ten years old this year." Concubine Cui couldn't figure out what Kangxi meant, so she could only answer according to his question.

"Not bad..." Kangxi murmured.Cao Yin is his nanny and grew up with him.Although Cao Yingui is weaving for one side now, how can the officialdom always be so smooth?Once the emperor and the courtiers, the prince has no feelings for the Cao family, he has to find a way out for his confidants.Although Kangxi has always been unwilling to obey his old age, since he contracted malaria when he personally conquered Junggar that year, he obviously felt that his health was not as good as before.Seeing that the prince is getting more and more mature, but he is declining and getting old!

Kangxi sighed, seeing Concubine Cui looking at him cautiously, he only smiled and said, "Go to bed."

This girl has also been with him for more than ten years, how time flies!

The next day, everyone who followed the southern tour knew about it, and Kangxi told Cao Yin that his second daughter would be kept for him, and she would point out a good family in the future.This time, everyone was stunned.
