Evening Shaohua in the Red House

But it is said that the two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia have worshiped their ancestors, and everyone has received the ceremony, and relatives and friends come to celebrate the festival.

On this day, Xiangyun came to pay New Year's greetings with the two wives of the historian, and Jia Mu asked her to stay for two more days. Who knew that this winter was snowing heavily. Starting from the next day, it snowed heavily for three consecutive nights. Xiangyun was temporarily blocked by snow. The heavy snow still did not stop every day, so Xiangyun stayed in Rongguo Mansion for a long time.

From the night of the sixth day, the snow was heavier than before, and the green pines and cypresses in the courtyard were covered with white snow. In the middle of the night, the sound of snow falling could be heard.

When the lights were lit on the [-]th, the heavy snow had just rested, and silver makeup and jade were built everywhere. Invited Xiren, Qingwen, Xueyan, Hupo and other girls to build snowmen in Jiamu's courtyard.

Everyone is not afraid of the cold, laughing and laughing, you talk to each other, and in less than a stick of incense, a pixiu is piled up. Qingwen went to find the black beads used for needlework on weekdays, and embedded them on the head to make it The appearance of the eyes, nose and mouth is really smart and beautiful.The maids were very happy, and Xiangyun was even more proud. He invited Li Wan, Baochai, Tanchun and others to see the snowman.

Daiyu had been holding the hand stove and watching from the porch. Seeing Li Wan and Baochai Tanchun coming hand in hand, she said with a smile, "Come and see Yun girl's masterpiece."

Li Wan saw that although the Pixiu was made of piled snow, it was quite imposing. It stood on the stone seat, looked up majestically, with its mouth open, covered in snow shards, and a row of snow bumps on its ridge, which looked like hair. Swaying in the wind, the seat underneath is also made of compacted snow, as clear and exquisite as a natural stone, but you can't tell it's snow at all, so you can't help nodding and laughing: "It's hard for her to think, it's really interesting."

Baochai also praised her a few words. Seeing that the corners of Xiangyun's skirt were soaked with snow, she said, "It's better to go back to the house to warm up. It's such a cold day, so be careful to freeze."

Xiangyun felt a little chill when he heard the words, so he couldn't help sneezing. He hurried into the room and drank a cup of hot tea. He turned his eyes and saw Jiamu's new gorilla felt cloak hanging under the window. She took it to wrap around her body, but she was not tall enough, and the cloak was big and long, so she took a sweat towel and tied it around her waist, and excitedly lifted the curtain to come out.

Daiyu was talking to Tanchun, when she saw Xiangyun's make-up, she couldn't look up to her smile, pointed at her and said with a smile, "Look at girl Yun!"

When everyone heard the reputation, they couldn't help laughing immediately, Tanchun laughed and said: "How is this?"

What do you mean, how do you dress up like this? "

Li Wan said with a smile: "I remember this cloak belongs to the old lady, Yun girl, where can you wear it, carefully throw it off."

Xiangyun didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, it's okay."

Just as he was talking, Baoyu came running after the meeting, separated from the maids, squeezed in to have a look, clapped his hands and stamped his feet with joy, and shouted, "Interesting! You're so stubborn!" Then he rolled up his sleeves Play hard together.

Xiangyun waved and said with a smile: "Second brother, come quickly, let's make another fresh and unique snowman, let the old lady and the wife have a look."

Baoyu became more and more interested, and the two brothers and sisters murmured together for a long time, and finally decided to make an ice and snow beauty, and immediately took the maids to work in the yard.

Daiyu Tanchun and the others were watching from the corridor, coming up with ideas from time to time.

Here Xiangyun had a big snowball, and was about to push it over, but unexpectedly, the cloak on his body was so big and long that he accidentally stepped on the hem of it, and suddenly fell to the ground, covered in muddy water.

Baoyu was startled, and hurried over and said, "Sister Yun, how are you?"

Xiang Yun only felt a dull pain in his buttocks, his face was flushed with embarrassment, and he hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, Cui Ling Xiren laughed and sighed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

Li Wan also didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he hurriedly asked someone to fetch hot water, and said to Cuilu, "Hurry up and help your girls go back to the house and change into clean clothes."

After that, he ordered people to go to the kitchen to make ginger soup.

Cui Ling helped Xiangyun go back to the room and changed into clean clothes. After a while, a woman from the kitchen brought a food box and said that the ginger soup was ready.

Li Wan immediately asked Xiren and Cuilu to bring a bowl to Baoyu and Xiangyun.

The two took a sip with bitter faces, then refused to drink any more, and said: "This is too bad to drink, it doesn't matter anyway, just two sips is enough."

Baochai heard the words and said: "I have been stubborn in the heavy snow for half a day, drink a few more sips of ginger soup to warm up and catch the cold carefully."

Li Wan said: "This is not a joke, finish drinking quickly, or I will tell the old lady to go."

Baoyu Xiangyun looked at each other and had to swallow with his eyes closed.

Daiyu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This is what it means to share blessings, share hardships, pile snowmen together, and drink ginger soup together."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

While talking and laughing, someone came to invite lunch suddenly, and everyone came forward. After a while, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, Yingchun, Xichun, etc. all came to Jiamu's side.

In two days it will be the Lantern Festival, and the Ningrong Second Mansion will be decorated with lanterns and festoons.

It was very lively, needless to say.

After the Lantern Festival, the imperial court opened the seal, and Emperor Qingde received Lin Ruhai's memorial again, saying that he had repeatedly requested to serve as an official, and all of them were graciously ordered to stay. However, he was seriously ill and it was really difficult to hold the post. If Lianzhan refused to resign, he might delay state affairs , then the crime will be returned, and there will be a debt of grace, so please go to the office and so on.

After Emperor Qingde watched it, he groaned silently. Since years ago, Lin Ruhai has repeatedly asked to resign.

It is an unwritten rule for an official to resign three times and stay three times when he becomes an official. At the beginning, he took office for a short time, and there were many complicated things, and there was no suitable candidate for the Yanzheng position, so the first two memorials were left unpublished.

He has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is not stable, so he naturally wants to arrange for his confidants in positions like the Yanzheng, which are related to the lifeblood of the court. not the Lord.

Originally, the Supreme Emperor had hemiplegia after a stroke, and his speech was not good. Unexpectedly, after several months of recuperation, he became much healthier. The power to decide military affairs is still in the hands of the Supreme Emperor.

Although he was not reconciled, he did not lose his mind because of it. Instead, he became more calm. After years of planning, he finally got to where he is today. He should not act hastily, but only slowly.

Thinking of this, Emperor Qingde knocked on the table with his index finger. After thinking for a long time, his heart suddenly moved, and he ordered someone to hold the memorial and went to Taiji Palace.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, it is reasonable for the Supreme Emperor to retreat to Shangyang Palace, but the new emperor insisted on refusing to do so. He still lived in the former East Palace, Fengci Palace, and went to Taiji Palace every morning and evening to calm down and serve decoctions. Emperor Renxiao.

After several months of recuperation, the Taishanghuang's condition has improved a lot. Although his limbs are still weak, his speech is much clearer than before. After reading the memorial and thinking about Lin Ruhai's poisoning, although he was a little unhappy, he was not too harsh. He pondered for a while , said: "Before Lin Hai intended to ask to retire, but I have never agreed. Now it seems that he is really sick and powerless. Since Lin Hai is seriously ill and cannot be qualified for the post of salt administration, let's choose someone else."

Emperor Qingde nodded and said: "I also mean the same thing. The responsibility of salt administration is of great importance and cannot be ignored."

The Supreme Emperor leaned on the couch, and after hearing the words, he gave him a meaningful look, and slowly said: "Who will the Emperor send?"

Emperor Qingde respectfully said: "Your subject is young and has little knowledge, and dare not specialize in such important matters, so I come here to ask my father to show me."

Seeing that the new emperor was still as respectful as ever, the Supreme Emperor felt relieved, secretly thinking that he had not chosen the wrong person.

The reason why Emperor Yongyuan abdicated in a hurry at the beginning was that he was paralyzed after suffering a stroke, so he had to make such a bad plan.

Since he ascended the throne, he has monopolized the power for decades. He is used to the feeling of being king, so how can he be willing to let go easily? He also knows that if he loses his power, he, the Supreme Emperor, will be nothing.

Therefore, even if he wants to abdicate, he has to find a way to control all the power in his own hands. It's just that the older sons are already full-fledged and not easy to control. The fourth prince has a resolute temperament and refuses to make up his mind Hearing people's words, he was quite moody and acted coldly. After careful consideration, he finally decided on the Seventh Prince.

One is that the Seventh Prince is smart and capable, has the ability to kill and make decisions, and values ​​love and righteousness. He has always been filial to the emperor's father and has a good relationship with all the brothers.

The second is that the Seventh Prince's mother and concubine died early, and the family members withered away, so there is no need to worry about the misfortune of the foreign relatives. The Seventh Concubine's natal family, Shoushan Bofu, is also a veteran of her own. Even if she abdicates, the government is still in her hands.

But the facts proved that his decision was not wrong. Since he abdicated, the behavior of the new emperor has always satisfied him.

The new emperor was so obedient, and he didn't hesitate to give some benefits. Thinking of this, the Supreme Emperor said: "There is no room for mistakes in the matter of salt administration. The emperor has always done things properly, so just watch and arrange."

Emperor Qingde was not surprised that the Supreme Emperor was willing to let go of power, and he was overjoyed, but his face remained calm, still very respectful, and calmly said: "I would like to obey the orders of my father."

Once Lin Ruhai retreated, he could arrange for his confidants.

The next day, Emperor Qingde ordered people to declare his will at the court meeting, saying that Lin Ruhai, the inspector of the salt industry, was seriously ill, and had repeatedly reported illness to return home, and resigned from the post of the salt department. I see his sincerity and compassion. He was sick and weak, and he was allowed to be an official.

Thinking of his achievements, he was promoted to a cabinet bachelor, and was added the title of Prince Taibao.

In addition, I also rewarded a Ruyi handle with three inlaid jade, twenty pieces of satin, four ends of large satin for outer rewards, two pairs of large purses, four pairs of small purses, and many antiques and precious medicinal materials.

The decree was sent to Yangzhou on the same day, and a new patrol salt censor was sent to take over.

When Jia Zheng came back from court that day, he told Jia Mu what happened today.

After hearing this, Jia Mu couldn't help sighing secretly. Although she was a woman in the inner house, she also knew that if the emperor had not abdicated, with Lin Ruhai's ability, it would not be difficult for her to become a first-rank official in the future. With such a result now, It is also decent.

In less than a meal, Lin Ru

The news of Hai's illness and resignation spread throughout Jia's mansion. Li Wan was talking with Sister Feng in Mrs. Wang's room. He was startled when he heard the news. Has history really changed?Did Lin Ruhai's death pass?

While thinking about it, a girl suddenly ran in to spread the word that the master was back. Li Wan and Sister Feng hurriedly hid in the green gauze cabinet, and saw Jia Zheng coming in quickly, and said to Mrs. Wang, "Go and get my court clothes. "

Mrs. Wang was startled, and said: "What is the master going to do with court clothes at this moment?"

Jia Zheng said: "Someone has come from the palace, saying that it is an order from the Holy Majesty!"

Mrs. Wang was shocked, but she had no time to ask more questions, so she hurriedly asked someone to fetch the court clothes.

Jia Zheng put on his court clothes and said, "Go and report to the old lady."

Mrs. Wang agreed, and hurriedly ordered people to pass the message to Jia Mu, and Sister Feng also hurriedly ordered the following to sprinkle water and burn incense, ready to receive the order.

Jia Zheng dressed properly, hurriedly set up the incense table, opened the middle door and knelt down to receive it, but his heart was uneasy, he couldn't guess where it came from, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
