The Lady of the Red Chamber

Yun Qingxuan followed Princess Huining and the others to the ice playground, looked at the endless ice surface, and then looked at the ice shoes with blades at the bottom handed over by the maids beside him, and then realized: it turns out that the ice shoes It's skating.

Princess Huining looked at Yun Qingxuan, took her hand and told her earnestly: "Huanhua, you grew up in Hangzhou, I'm afraid you haven't played this game before. You will follow my uncle later and let him teach you .”

Yun Qingxuan actually knows how to play ice skating, and even won an award in the city's skating competition.But in order not to reveal his secrets, he still said obediently: "I will, thank you Princess for reminding me."

Princess Jiatai was standing next to these people, and she felt a little awkward when she heard the words: "I can also teach Huan Huan Bingxi."

Yun Qing lowered her head slowly, and the corners of her mouth twitched imperceptibly.She quietly raised her head to look at the eleventh prince, hoping that he would give her some strength, so that Princess Jiatai would not really get close to her.

Fortunately, the Eleventh Prince has always been connected with Yun Qingxuan, and he took two steps forward to block Princess Jiatai's sight without any trace: "Jiatai, don't you still want to compete with Huining? Why do you have time to teach your cousin? Just right A few days ago, Zhenbao Pavilion released a new set of Nanhai Zhutou noodles, I decided to buy it, how about using it as a prize for the competition between the two of you?"

Princess Jiatai's eyes lit up when she heard this.

She has been coveting that set of Nanhai pearl head and face for a long time.However, the price is too high, and the Second Prince's Concubine has never been too fond of the jewelry outside, so she never bought it.

Now that the Eleventh Prince said to use that as the lottery, how could she be unhappy?

Princess Huining also likes that simple and generous, elegant and uncommon appearance, but she has never been embarrassed to ask the sixth prince and concubine for it.Hearing what the Eleventh Prince said, he immediately beamed with joy and said, "Since that's the case, Huining will thank Little Huangshu first."

When the two princesses left, the sons of the Zhen family and Yun Qingyu also began to compete politely with each other.The Eleventh Prince took Yun Qingxuan to a secluded and uninhabited place but within easy reach of everyone, and at a distance from Yun Qingxuan, he made a gesture of invitation: "Cousin, don't be afraid, I will teach you You. It's easy."

Under the service of the court lady, Yun Qinghuan put on the ice play shoes, looked at the serious appearance of the eleventh prince, was tangled and coy: "Your Highness, I actually know how to play ice."

The eleventh prince was a little surprised: "The winter in Hangzhou is not enough for everyone to play ice games, how can my cousin?"

Yun Qing scratched her head slowly, not knowing how to explain it.

The eleventh prince saw that Yun Qingxuan obviously didn't want to talk about it, and he was so blessed that he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the smooth and clean ice surface: "I see, it must be the goddess who fell into a dream and saw that my cousin was lonely in winter, so she taught me in my dream Cousin Bingxi, right?"

Yun Qingxuan didn't expect the Eleventh Prince to be so powerful, and even thought of the reason for her, she held the Eleventh Prince's hand excitedly: "Your Highness, how do you know? You are too smart."

As the saying goes, Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly, and a butterfly dreamed of Zhuang Zhou.How can I know if everything in this world is just a big false dream, and if I am the goddess who taught Bingxi in reality?

The eleventh prince originally wanted to give Yun Qingxuan a step down, but he didn't expect Yun Qingxuan to be so excited.For a moment, he couldn't help believing it was true: "Is it true that a goddess taught my cousin Bingxi in a dream? Cousin is really lucky. Why don't we compare together, how about?"

Yun Qingxuan felt that the Eleventh Prince was caring, and naturally did not refuse his request, so she nodded immediately: "Okay."

Realizing something again, he let go of the hands holding the eleventh prince's arm, and said in a slightly awkward tone, "I just overstepped, I hope Your Highness will not laugh at you."

The eleventh prince smiled softly and said, "How could it be?"

He made another gesture: "Cousin please first."

Yun Qingxuan hasn't played ice games for a long time, now she is like a fish swimming in water.With a little effort on his body, he slid freely on the ice.

Thinking back to the previous skating posture, Yun Qinghuan turned around a few times at first, and the little pink cloak on her body was raised high with her movements.After getting used to it, he speeded up, swung his hands to keep his balance, and slid round and round on the ice.The hem of the clothes on both sides unfolded is like the wings of a butterfly, flying up and down following Yun Qing's slow movements.

Yun Qing slowly spun around a few times and felt that it was not enough, so she jumped up and spun around in the air, imitating the posture in the previous competition.

The Eleventh Prince had been paying attention to Yun Qingxuan all the time, and when he saw this, his heart skipped a beat, he hurriedly stepped forward and slid in front of Yun Qingxuan: "Cousin, your action was too dangerous just now, are you alright?"

Yun Qing slowly blushed, beads of sweat even appeared on the tip of her nose and forehead: "I'm fine. Your Highness, why don't you play?"

The Eleventh Prince took a reproachful look at Yun Qingxuan, and nodded her head vainly: "You are so bold, how can I dare to play by myself. In case of bumps and bumps, how can you tell me to play with Hui Hui?" The mother concubine still has the mother concubine to explain."

While the two were talking, Princess Huining and Princess Jiatai led a large group of people to slide over.

Princess Jiatai looked at the eleventh prince quite proudly: "Little emperor uncle, I won this time."

Princess Huining was a bit unwilling, but she was always able to take it and put it down, so she bowed her hands to Princess Jiatai: "This time I am willing to admit defeat, and when we come back from Wutai Mountain, we will have a good match."

The eleventh prince didn't seem surprised at all, and even stretched out his hand to pat Princess Jiatai on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement: "Since that's the case, I'll send someone to send the lottery to the second emperor's mansion later. I didn't expect that last year Jiatai Bingxi is still on par with Huining, and will be able to beat Huining this year."

Princess Jiatai got something she liked, and was praised, very proud.Looking up, like a peacock with its tail open.

Seeing Yun Qinghuan standing aside, wearing ice-playing shoes, he asked curiously: "Has Miss Yun learned to ice-play?"

Just as Yun Qingxu was about to answer, the Eleventh Prince immediately said first: "I just taught my cousin. My cousin is very talented, and she has been practicing quite effectively in just a while."

Yun Qing slowly looked at the handsome side face of the Eleventh Prince, his eyes flashed, and he understood the Eleventh Prince's intentions, and followed the Eleventh Prince's words: "This ice play is quite fun. In the future, there are things to do in winter gone."

Princess Jiatai did not doubt that he was there, and warmly invited him: "There is also an ice play place in our house. If Miss Yun doesn't mind, you can come and play."

Yun Qinghuan: "..."

Princess Huining: "...Have you finished copying the scriptures? I invite you to have fun over the mansion slowly. Let the imperial grandfather know, and you must be punished."

Princess Jiatai's expression froze, obviously thinking about the next year's miserable trip to Mount Wutai, her shoulders drooped slightly, a little sluggish.

As it was getting late, several people slipped for a while before going back to the palace for dinner.

After the Yun family had dinner, they had a few words with Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi, and then they left the palace.

At night, Yun Qinghuan changed into obscene clothes under the service of Bai Lu and Bai Shuang, and when she was about to go to sleep, the door of the room was pushed open.

Yun Qing looked slowly, seeing that it was Mrs. Lin, she sat up from the bed strangely: "Mother, it's so late, why don't you rest?"

Lin sat down next to Yun Qingxuan, raised her head and ordered: "Bai Lu, Bai Shuang, you go out. No one is allowed to come in without my order."

After the two of them exited the room and closed the door again, Yun Qing slowly looked at Lin's rarely serious face, and held Lin's hand, a little puzzled: "Aniang, do you have anything to tell me?"

Lin looked at Yun Qingxuan, sighed, stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of her daughter's head, and asked, "Huanhua, Auntie heard that not only did Princess Jiatai not confront you today, she even invited you You go to the house for ice play. Is there such a thing?"

After Yun Qinghuan thought about it for a while, she knew that her aunt must be worried about them and sent someone to follow them quietly.He didn't hide anything, and nodded neatly: "Yes. But I was blocked by His Royal Highness Eleven and the princess."

Lin shi sighed deeply, looking at Yun Qinghuan a little bit unbearably.Thinking of his son's persuasion, he still hardened his heart: "Slow down, you saved Princess Jiatai's life. It's a good thing that she doesn't target you anymore. But you must remember. Don't go too far with Princess Jiatai It's getting closer, do you understand? Otherwise, I will dislike Concubine Yi."

"I know. Cousin and His Royal Highness the Second Prince are now at a critical moment. I can't get too close to Princess Jiatai, so as not to attract criticism."

Lin looked at her daughter, stretched out her hand to straighten Li Yunqing's placket, with a somewhat inexplicable expression: "It's not just for this reason."

"En." Yun Qing slowly raised her head, a little puzzled.

Mrs. Lin looked at Yun Qing and smiled, her eyes were far away, as if she was looking at someone or something through Yun Qing: "Huan, do you know why Concubine Yi is so kind to your aunt?"

Yun Qing shook his head slowly.

This is also the weirdest thing about her.Because the relationship between Concubine Yi and Concubine Hui is already a little unusual.

If it's nothing serious, it doesn't make sense at all.

Lin sighed: "If it wasn't for your elder brother's persuasion, I wouldn't have told you about this so early."

"Slow down, do you know His Royal Highness the Third Prince?"

"I know." When Yun Qingxuan returned to the capital, Yun Qingchi told him a lot of taboo secrets, so as not to make mistakes in the future and make people laugh: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince is the eldest son of Concubine Yi, but at the age of five He died of illness at that time."

Lin sneered and nodded Dianyun Qingyou's forehead: "There are so many people who died of illness. In this palace, the most indispensable thing is conspiracy behind the scenes."

Yun Qingxuan was startled, thought of something, and involuntarily grabbed the sheet under her body: "Aniang, you mean, Your Highness the Third Prince..."

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince is His Majesty's most outstanding son. He can read and write at the age of one, and he can export poetry at the age of three. Back then, he was so proud of Concubine Yi. Even your aunt, every day, said that His Highness the Third Prince He hugged him on his lap, and joked that it would be great if he had such an excellent child."

"When I was in the residence, Concubine Yi was bullied by others because of her low status and she didn't like to fight. Your aunt has a straightforward temper, and she hates these ghosts and monsters the most. She always stepped forward to help Concubine Yi teach those people A villain who tramples on the low. After going back and forth, their love is extraordinary. Later, your aunt became a noble concubine, but unfortunately she had no confidence because she didn't have a son. At that time, the concubine Yi, who was still a nobleman, said, Raise His Royal Highness the Third Prince under your aunt's lap, so that the people in the harem will not look down on your aunt."

Yun Qing fell silent.

Even if Mrs. Lin didn't say anything about it, she would be able to guess what happened next.

It was nothing more than the family background of the Marquis of Zhenguo and the financial resources of the Chen family, coupled with the intelligence of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, made some people feel uneasy, and thus made some excessive actions, which ultimately cost His Highness the Third Prince's life.

Thinking of the amazing and talented third prince back then, regret flashed in her eyes, and she sighed again: "When your highness was five years old, he fell seriously ill. That night, your majesty's ancestors were worshiped in the Taimiao, and there were only Two imperial physicians are on duty. Concubine Zhen Gui, the concubine, sent the only two imperial physicians to Zhaoyang Palace on the grounds that His Royal Highness the Second Prince is ill."

Yun Qing slowly opened her eyes wide, looked up at Lin, and said with some panic in her voice, "Could it be..."

"No." Seeing Yun Qingxuan's expression, Lin knew what she was thinking, shook her head and said, "Your Highness didn't die that night."

"Concubine Hui was furious when she learned that all the imperial doctors had been summoned by Concubine Zhen. Unfortunately, Concubine Zhen refused to let him go because of the fact that the Second Highness was unwell. In the end, the empress held the family-heired sword and threatened him with a sharp blade across her neck. , and finally an imperial physician is leaving from Zhaoyang Palace."

"However, that imperial doctor was bought by Concubine Zhen long ago, and she refused to say anything useful except pleading guilty. Concubine Yi was anxious but helpless. Seeing that His Highness is getting weaker and weaker, your aunt made a bold decision. From that day on, Concubine Yi and Concubine Hui have always looked up to Concubine Hui and obeyed her orders."
