The Favorite of the Court of Joy

Zhang Xiaoqian picked up the brush and dipped it in ink, then wrote freely on the red paper.Not to be outdone, Wan Zi began to write.

It didn't take too long to write two couplets.

What Zhang Xiaoqian wrote is: Spring is always present all year round/everything is blooming forever - horizontal batch: welcome the new year

What Wan Zi wrote is: smooth sailing, good year and every year / all the best backgammon - horizontal batch: auspicious star shines brightly

After reading Zhang Xiaoqian's couplet, Wan Zi smiled and said, "You wrote well, you wrote both of our names on it." Then she whispered in his ear, "The handwriting is more beautiful than Qianhong's. Looks good."

"What's there, what's there, your writing is also very good." Zhang Xiaoqian suddenly felt better.But he won't tell him, he doesn't know how to write couplets, but every family puts up couplets during the Spring Festival and writes them down when they pass by.If he was asked to think of one himself, he would not be able to think of it.

"We rely on several houses and several doors in the plum garden. Let's write quickly."

The two stopped talking and concentrated on writing couplets.

This writing, I wrote it at night, and put it aside to dry after writing, and the paper-cut over there was almost finished.Zhang Xiaoqian took their works, and each of them can be called a work of art.

Look, there are so many paper-cut patterns.There are lifelike big fat pigs juggling like people, there are big sows with a few piglets, there are the simplest paper-cuts of blessing characters, there are more complicated ones with fish patterns every year, and there are plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum. Floral patterns and more.The most coincident thing is Xiaoyue's hands, which cut out the heads of the characters in Yimeiyuan, which is like a family portrait of Yimeiyuan.

Zhang Xiaoqian was very satisfied, and at the same time wanted to deliberately test Xiaoyue's paper-cutting skills.He wrote on the paper: HappyNewYear and HappySpringFestival (Happy New Year and Happy Spring Festival)

"Xiaoyue, can you find what I wrote and cut it out?"

Xiaoyue looked at it, and although she didn't know what he wrote, she was confident. "My lord, don't worry, this servant will cut one for you to see."

"Xiao Qian, what did you write? I thought it was a spell." Ximei asked.

Zhang Xiaoqian first read these two English words in English, and everyone followed him subconsciously: "Hei Pi Niu Yuer, is Hei Pi She going to trouble Ruiying?"

Listening to their poor English, Zhang Xiaoqian sniggered holding back his internal pain, and then tried to say seriously: "This is a talisman that has been handed down from our hometown to wish for peace. It can be pasted on the door and windows to convey good luck."

Xiaocheng and others not only sighed: "Wow, the customs in your hometown are really different, sir."

"Hee hee~~" Zhang Xiaoqian smiled triumphantly, Wan Zi couldn't laugh or cry, she just begged them not to come to him and ask him what the symbol actually meant, he and Qianhong were from the same hometown, but he really didn't know what Zhang Xiaoqian wrote , must be the so-called "modern" world in his mouth.

Xiaoyue lived up to expectations and cut the two English blessings into paper-cut shapes. Zhang Xiaoqian gave him a thumbs up and asked her to cut a few more.

After playing like this, it was already dark, and Xiao Huang had already prepared dinner over there.After Xiaocheng and others went to bring the food, everyone sat down to eat.There are not so many rules in Yimei Garden, the master and servant girls eat together.

After the meal, Xiaoju and Xiaohua each took a bowl of anti-fetal medicine for Zhang Xiaoqian and Wan Zi respectively.Zhao Minghan and Zhao Yunxuan attached great importance to the child in their womb, not only asked the government doctor to ask for the pulse of peace, but the doctor Jiang even came to take the pulse once every ten days, and then informed Zhao Yunxuan of the fetus's current situation.

After drinking the medicine, Zhang Xiaoqian planned to start putting up window grilles, but was stopped by a group of people.The reason is that it is so dark, if you fall down, you can still get it.There are plenty of time posts tomorrow.Zhang Xiaoqian gave up and went to bed early.

The next morning, when he woke up, the excitement came out again, urging everyone to finish their breakfast early and put up couplets and window grilles.

Driven by his enthusiasm, everyone moved quickly and quickly had breakfast, and prepared all the rice paste and brushes for stickers.

Zhang Xiaoqian excitedly wanted to post it, but was stopped by Xiaocheng and Ximei, who said that he and Wanzi were pregnant, and it was best not to move, so he sat down and corrected them to see if the posting was crooked.

Wan Zi also persuaded him.He has no choice but to sit obediently and watch them post, but he is also happy in his heart, after all, this is the first New Year after time travel.I don't know how the people here spend their New Year's Eve. In short, he doesn't want to be deserted. Even if there are only a few of them in Yimeiyuan, they still have a prosperous life.

Yimeiyuan is a courtyard for housing concubines. They say it's big or small, but they still posted it for a long time until Shen Shi.Zhang Xiaoqian looked around and was very satisfied with his arrangement, then trotted into the house to warm up.

When he was trotting, Xiao Cheng was worried behind him. "Young master, don't run, walk slowly."

Unfortunately, when he was running, Zhao Minghan who was passing by saw him, and he frowned, thinking that Zhang Xiaoqian still didn't care about the children, so he vented his anger on Xiaocheng and the others. "How do you take care of the master, just let him run like this, if something happens to him, can you afford it? Go and ask Butler Wu to get twenty boards as a fine."

Xiao Cheng, who was kneeling on the ground, lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and said, "Yes." With twenty boards, there is no need to lie down and sleep tonight.

Zhang Xiaoqian in the room heard the movement, came out, saw Zhao Minghan reprimanding Xiaocheng and the others, and said angrily: "What are you punishing them for? The legs are on my body, if I want to run away they can do nothing to me. If you want to punish them , just punish me."

"You..." Zhao Minghan held his breath, shuffled around for a while, and then said: "This time is a warning, next time you run like this, I will let someone beat them to death."

Zhang Xiaoqian was also angry, and said angrily: "Don't rely on being a prince to be lawless, and beat people to death."

"Why can't this king do this? They are maids who have signed a contract of prostitution. Their life and death are all in the hands of this king. Even if they are to die now, it will be an instant matter."

The servant girls kneeling on the ground were all pale in fright.

"You...you..." Zhang Xiaoqian was so angry that he pointed at him and was speechless for a long time. "Didn't you say that you would never come to my Yimei Garden again? Why don't you talk about it and come again."

"Who said that the king came in, and the king stood at the door, so he couldn't enter."

One sentence left Zhang Xiaoqian speechless, and he was so angry that his fetus moved, his stomach hurt, and his body was bent so painful that his facial features were deformed.

Zhao Minghan saw his vow of not caring about anything else and never stepping into the Yimei Garden again, so he flew to him with lightness kung fu, carried him to the bed in the house, and asked the government doctor to be brought over quickly.

Zhang Xiaoqian, who was lying on the bed, was in pain, but still annoyed Zhao Minghan, and said, "Slap me in the face. You have stepped into my leaning plum garden."

"So what? The whole palace belongs to me, the Yimei Garden belongs to me, the child belongs to me, and even you belong to me. I just stepped in, how about it?"

Seeing Zhang Xiaoqian still pouted unhappily, Zhao Minghan didn't dare to say anything else. "Okay, okay, I swear that I will never touch those maidservants, and I will entrust their lives to you."

"It's not too bad." Zhang Xiaoqian's anger finally subsided, but his stomach still hurt a little.

Not long after, the government doctor rushed over and took Zhang Xiaoqian's pulse, then took out a bottle of pills from the medicine box, and asked Zhang Xiaoqian to take two pills.

"Taking this will relieve the abdominal pain." The doctor of the Lu family continued, "The qi attacks the heart, and the fetal qi is moved. Mr. Qian, you have been poisoned before, and your constitution is weak. It is normal to have abdominal pain due to fetal gas."

"Is it serious?" Zhao Minghan asked hurriedly.

"Fortunately, there was no bleeding. If there was bleeding, it would be a serious problem, and there might be a miscarriage."

Both Zhao Minghan and Zhang Xiaoqian felt scared.

"Doctor, what should I do?" Zhang Xiaoqian immediately got up and asked nervously.

"Don't worry, Mr. Qian. Later, add a few more medicines to the anti-fetal medicine that Lu will give you later, and you won't have abdominal pain."

"Xiaocheng sent someone to get the medicine from the government doctor."

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing that everyone was leaving, Zhang Xiaoqian pushed Zhao Minghan away from his arms, stared at him and said, "Don't worry, your child is fine, you can go out now."

Zhao Minghan frowned first, then slowly relaxed his brows, telling himself not to be angry with him anymore, and not to make him angry.

Everyone in the palace regarded him as sleeping with a beautiful lady in his arms every day. Who knew how he spent the two months of arguing with the little servant.Although others did not come to Yimei Garden, they almost stepped in inadvertently.Let the cold wind in the dark report the news of Yimeiyuan to him every day.Zhao Minghan scolded himself for being crazy more than once, isn't he just a darling with a more deceptive appearance?Why should he let the majestic Regent of a country never forget him.This tortured little demon, he seemed to have stripped his clothes off, pressed him on the bed and raped him vigorously, made him cry, scream, beg for mercy, and yell "good brother" every time.

Imagining that scene made Zhao Minghan's heart itch.

Seeing him worrying about the child just now, and asking the government doctor what to do, Zhao Minghan thought it was not that he didn't care about the child.

Zhao Minghan sat on the side of the bed, put him in his arms again, and said: "Okay, don't be angry with me, don't you say that you can live a long life if you are in a good mood? When you get angry, you are not the one who suffers. Yes This king is wrong, this king shouldn't make you angry."

Everyone was down the stairs, Zhang Xiaoqian felt that he shouldn't be too hypocritical, so he relaxed and nestled in his arms, happy and warm in his heart.He missed him terribly too.

"I want to lie down for a while."

"Okay." Zhao Minghan gently put him down on the bed, pulled the quilt and covered him.Then he took off his shoes, got into bed, and put his arms around Zhang Xiaoqian.

Zhang Xiaoqian was startled, and asked, "What are you doing? Don't you need to work outside?"

"If you don't go, I want to stay here with you." Zhao Minghan asked about the fragrance on his body. This familiar smell made him feel like a lost treasure.Why doesn't Zhang Xiaoqian think so.He took the initiative to ask: "Xiao Huang and Xi Mei have prepared a sumptuous New Year's Eve banquet, if you are not afraid of eating too much, then come."

Of course Zhao Minghan was happy with his invitation, which proved that they were reconciled.only……

Seeing that he didn't answer, Zhang Xiaoqian became annoyed again, "It's fine if you don't eat it, I don't care if you come to eat it. That's right, there are so many delicacies outside waiting for you to taste."

"Don't be angry, when did the king say he didn't want to come? It's just that the king will stay in the palace from tonight to noon tomorrow. First, the monarchs and ministers will watch the year together, and second, he will accompany the emperor to worship the Temple of Heaven in the early morning, and pray to heaven for blessings." My Dongyue country is prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment. The third time I come is to go to the Taimiao to worship the ancestors after offering sacrifices to heaven. After these things are done, I will probably not be able to return until tomorrow night." Zhao Minghan continued, "Don't worry, the next three or four Every day is a day of annual leave, this king will come to accompany you in the future, and eat with you here."

Zhang Xiaoqian said angrily: "Hmph, who wants you to accompany me? I'll just have children to accompany me." Then, Zhang Xiaoqian thought that usually such a large dinner party in the palace, the princes and ministers would bring their wives and misses together, which woman Zhao Minghan was planning to bring .Well, he admitted that he was jealous, but he just wanted to ask and know. "Who are you going to bring to the palace's New Year's Eve banquet? Concubine Hua? Or Madam Lu? Or both?"

Zhao Minghan could smell the sour smell, and he said with a smile: "No one will take it, they are not qualified."

Zhang Xiaoqian knew that only Zhengfei was qualified to attend such a palace banquet, and felt sad for a while, Zhao Minghan would marry Zhengfei sooner or later.In fact, he really hates himself for being like this, he's too girly, so sentimental, could it really be because of his pregnancy.

"I want to raise my child by my side, and when you have a concubine, you will naturally raise it under her name."

Zhao Minghan didn't respond to him. He felt that it would be bad for the child's reputation to let Beloved raise the child.He was silent, Zhang Xiaoqian only took it as his consent.

The two nestled together for a while, Zhang Xiaoqian took a nap for a while, Zhao Minghan watched him quietly, got up after a long time, returned to the main courtyard, put on court clothes and entered the palace for a banquet.Before leaving Yimei Garden, he stood at the door and carefully looked at the couplet at the door, which read: Adverse wind is like a solution, and it is easy not to destroy it.Zhao Minghan asked Xiaocheng and learned that it was written by Zhang Xiaoqian.This pair of couplets is a bit interesting and reflects the yard of Yimeiyuan.Is this what he wants to say to him?

When it was time for dinner, every household blew firecrackers, as if telling each other that after dinner, it was time to watch the New Year's Eve.

Zhang Xiaoqian was awakened by the sound of firecrackers, only to find that Zhao Minghan had already left.After taking a nap for a while, my stomach stopped making noises. Zhang Xiaoqian put his hand on his stomach and touched it twice, imitating the tone of a child and saying, "Little Baoer, please be obedient and grow up quickly, don't make a fuss."

"Master, you are awake, Xiao Huang has prepared dinner, do you want to eat?"

Zhang Xiaoqian nodded and said, "Give it up quickly. You are all hungry, I'm sorry to make you wait for me alone."

"Young master, don't say that, we are not hungry, and we will have a reunion dinner when you are together."

"You can talk. When the clock strikes midnight, shall I give you a little more New Year's money?"

"That's a good relationship. It's just like the so-called New Year's New Year's New Year's Press, and next year's servants will definitely have everything they want."

Zhang Xiaoqian nodded her forehead and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll give you a big red envelope."
