The Sixth Prince of Green Tea is Soft and Soft [Qing Chuan]

The concubines and concubines finally ushered in the day when the canonization ceremony was officially held. They wore solemn and luxurious auspicious clothes, a crown of auspicious clothes inlaid with golden phoenix pearls on their heads, and around their necks were hung pearls, emeralds, agates, kyanites, The court beads made of coral and other precious gemstones weighed dozens of catties, but every concubine present straightened their backs and smiled.

Facing the sound of playing music, according to their status, they slowly walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, performed six sues, kneeled three times and bowed three times, knelt down and listened to the announcement. A trip to the Empress Dowager's Palace of Mercy.

When the imperial concubine Tong Jiashi returned to Chengqian Palace, her entire back was already soaked, and it was difficult to even lift her arms.

"Quick, quickly change this body for Bengong."

After several palace servants came forward to help her change back into the regular clothes, and sat on the couch and drank hot tea, Tong Jiashi felt that she was alive again, and only after resting for a while, she heard the news from outside.

"The Emperor is here!"

Tong Jiashi is the person with the highest status in the harem, and today is a big day for the canonization ceremony, so Kangxi will come here because of emotion and reason.

"Chen and concubine greet the emperor."

Kangxi skipped her straight away, first sat down by himself, and then called out.

Tong Jia's heart tightened, and she immediately sensed something was wrong. The emperor seemed not very happy, but nothing major happened today.

"Your Majesty, please have some tea." The imperial concubine personally took the teacup from the hand of the court lady and presented it to the Emperor.

Kangxi took it, and said calmly: "You are now an imperial concubine, so it's good to leave such things to the servants."

Tong Jia smiled before answering: "No matter whether the concubine is a concubine, a noble concubine or an imperial concubine, they are all supposed to serve the emperor, and the concubine is willing to do this."

The atmosphere between the two gradually became harmonious, unlike when Kangxi entered the door just now, they chatted a few words, somehow, Kangxi suddenly mentioned the refugees outside the imperial city who were suffering from hunger and cold in winter, and said that he wanted to send someone to give out porridge.

"It's really pitiful. Although the concubine has not been in charge of the harem for a short time, she is willing to find ways to save some expenses and share the emperor's worries."

"Well, it's good for you to think this way, but I heard from the noble concubine that the imperial concubine was dissatisfied with the embroiderers in the palace, so she asked several embroiderers outside the palace to make clothes. Don't do such a thing in the future. Otherwise, if the honorable families in the capital follow suit, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the common people."

The imperial concubine's eyelashes trembled, and a faint light flashed in her eyes, imperial concubine?

"Yes, the concubine knows, but the concubine may have misunderstood. The concubine asked her mother's family to find an embroiderer outside the palace to make clothes, but she was not dissatisfied with the embroiderer in the palace, and the concubine did not do it for herself. It’s for Xiao Liu.”

"Oh?" Kangxi was a little surprised, but he thought about it, his cousin grew up with him, and she was indeed not such a person who coveted extravagance, but he mistakenly thought that her cousin had changed her temperament after she became an imperial concubine.

"The concubine got a blueprint by chance, and she looked very festive, so she wanted to make a new dress for Xiaoliu, as a sign of auspiciousness, but the embroiderer in the palace was busy making auspicious clothes for the concubine who was going to be enshrined today. The concubine was afraid that the embroidered ladies would not be able to make it in time, which would delay the canonization ceremony for other concubines.

In addition, the concubine's own embroidery is not good, and you know it, the emperor. Of course, the concubine does not want to wrong Xiao Liu, so she went to find someone outside the palace to do it, because she was afraid that it would be too late for Xiao Liu to wear it on New Year's Eve. The empress dowager, the empress dowager and the emperor had a surprise. "

The imperial concubine said so well, Kangxi was very curious about what kind of clothes it was.

"What kind of clothes are they?"

"The concubine's mouth is stupid, I'm afraid I can't explain clearly, the emperor will know after seeing it for himself on New Year's Eve."

"Isn't there a blueprint? Show it to me."

"Your Majesty, of course you have to show the drawings to the embroiderer, so that you can make clothes accordingly." The imperial concubine covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled lightly.

Kangxi took a sip of tea with some embarrassment.

"Didn't I forget it for a while, what about Xiao Liu? Why didn't I see him running around outside today?"

"The concubine knows that the emperor will come to the concubine today, but today is also the day when the concubine de concubine is conferred the concubine, so the concubine asked the two brothers to go to the Yonghe Palace to congratulate the concubine de concubine."

"It's still you who are thoughtful." Kangxi put down his teacup, his tone was much gentler.

Except for the imperial concubine herself, no one else knew about this thrilling and smokeless cold war.

And Yinzuo was happily holding his mother in one hand and his brother in the other, chatting twitter.

"Er Niang~ Your clothes are so beautiful, and so is this hat~" Yin Zuo said with a smile, pointing to the hat studded with golden phoenixes and pearls that Aunt Qing was holding.

"Sixth brother, this is a lucky hat, not an ordinary hat." Aunt Qing explained with a smile.

Concubine De touched Xiao Liu's head, and looked at him with a gentle smile.

"Xiao Liu is right. It really looks like a hat. Er Niang also made a new hat for Xiao Liu. Do you want to try it?"

"Yes!" Yinzuo likes to wear a hat in winter the most. Not only will his head be warm, but his ears won't get cold.

Yinzhen was stunned when he saw the hat.

Concubine De noticed something was wrong with him, she smiled and said to him: "Xiao Si also has it."

The two brothers each wore a fox hat with a circle of fox fur, and Yinzhen pulled the big ears on the hat unnaturally.

Yin Zuo was very happy, he happily turned around in the hall, showing everyone his new hat 360 degrees, and couldn't stop asking everyone.

"Does it look good?"

"It's beautiful! Sixth brother is very cute in this hat."

"Your Majesty's handicraft is good, Brother Six is ​​good-looking, and the maidservant looks very good at it."

"But Xiao Liu still thinks that elder brother is the prettiest~" Yinzuo hugged his elder brother, looked at him with a smile on his neck and said.

The corners of Yinzhen's mouth turned up a little, and finally he felt less uncomfortable. It's fine for Xiao Liu to think it looks good. He can't see the left and right, so he can wear it.

When the two brothers came out of the Yonghe Palace, they met several passing concubines walking together, and the leader of them was Xi Concubine.

Xi Concubine saw the fox hats on the two of them and saw that they had just come out of the Yonghe Palace, so she immediately snorted coldly.

"Everyone should learn a little bit. With the kung fu of being humble and pleasing to others, not only will you be able to get the emperor's mercy, you will be promoted all the way, and you will also be able to get the protection of the imperial concubine. You will see your son every day. I am used to wagging my tail and begging for mercy, no wonder the hats I make are all foxy."

After hearing this, the others laughed and whispered to the two brothers.

Yin Zuo was very angry, this woman clearly saw that he and his elder brother were young, so she purposely pointed and scolded Huai in front of the two of them and insulted Eniang!

On the other hand, although Yinzhen frowned after hearing these words, he knew that it was normal for a woman in the harem to say some nasty things after she fell out of favor, so he just ignored her, so he wanted to hold Yinzuo and hurry up. Some leave.

Unexpectedly, Yinzuo took his hand in the opposite direction and led him to the front of Xi Consort and his party. He was a small person, but stood bravely in front of a group of adults.

"This empress, Xiao Liu, has never seen her before. I don't know which palace she is from?" Yin Zuo blinked and blinked, and those black grape-like eyes shone with fragments of light.

"This is Empress Xi from Jingyang Palace."

"Miss Xi? Brother, she is also a concubine just like Erniang before. Aren't the concubines Hui, Yi, Rong, and Erniang all already concubines? Xiaoliu thought there were no concubines in the palace. Where is the concubine?"

Yin Zuo tilted his little head and seemed very puzzled.

This sentence can be regarded as poking Xi Concubine's lungs.

"Presumptuous!" Xi Concubine roared angrily, pointing at him.

"Did Xiao Liu say something wrong? Madam Xi? But Xiao Liu really didn't know, it wasn't on purpose, Xiao Liu now knows that there is still a concubine in the palace, Madam Xi, please don't be angry, okay?"

Yin Zuo carefully hid behind his brother, as if he was a little afraid, but it was obvious that he still summoned up his courage and hoped that Xi Concubine would stop being angry.

"Sixth elder brother is disrespectful to me, come here, let me go up and teach sixth elder brother the rules!"

Shunfeng and Su Peisheng quickly stood in front of the two older brothers.

"The emperor is here! The imperial concubine is here!"

Kangxi and the imperial concubine were standing at the gate of the Chengqian Palace, and after listening for an unknown amount of time, Yinzhen noticed that Shun Shui, one of the twin eunuchs beside Xiao Liu, was standing beside the imperial concubine.

"Miss Xi, if Huang Ama doesn't give you a concubine, you can't be angry with Xiao Liu and brother, can Xiao Liu help you to talk to Huang Ama? Can you stop asking them to come and bully Xiao Liu and you?" Brother~ woo~~"

When Kangxi came to the front, he saw a group of palace people surrounding the two children. Among them, Xiao Liu, who was hiding behind Xiao Si, had a pale face, begging Xi Concubine who was opposite him timidly.

Xiao Liu has the most lively temper on weekdays, and Kangxi has never seen him so frightened, and seeing him makes people feel distressed.

Just at this time, the people of Yonghe Palace heard the emperor's guard of honor coming here, so they informed Concubine De, and Concubine De just came out in a hurry.

Seeing the two children being surrounded by people, she immediately walked over to protect the two children behind her.

The imperial concubine was really worried seeing her five-month-old stomach, so she also walked over, and picked up Xiao Liu who was obviously more scared, while the concubine De was holding Yinzhen who looked better.

"Concubine Xi, why do you want your people to block the fourth elder brother and sixth elder brother? But are you dissatisfied with the Jin Feng?" Kangxi's face was very ugly, and his tone was very cold.

"Concubine! No concubine!" Xi Concubine was very confused at this moment, she just wanted to express her anger because she saw that the two elder brothers were young and ignorant, and probably couldn't understand the adults' cynicism.

"No? Then you swear to the sky here, I listen."

Concubine Xi certainly didn't dare to swear, she was already dissatisfied, the Concubine De is not half as honored as she was in her prime, in terms of seniority, she is more senior than Concubine De, but Concubine De is just lucky, she is used to putting on airs to curry favor with the Emperor And the imperial concubine.

"Concubine Xi, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't be angry with the two elder brothers, not to mention, you have surrounded them with so many people, they are still so young, how frightened you must be." Concubine De was weak After speaking, two lines of tears fell from those loving eyes.

"It was the sixth elder brother who spoke disrespectfully to the concubine, and the latter was angry. He just wanted someone to teach the sixth elder brother how to behave, not to hurt them!" Xi Concubine anxiously defended herself.

"Sixth elder brother spoke rudely to you? Xiaoliu, what did you say just now?" Kangxi stared fixedly at Concubine Xi who was kneeling on the ground and spoke.

With a trembling voice, Yin Zuo said intermittently: "Just now... Xiao Liu is real... I didn't know there was... a concubine in the palace, so I asked... a sentence, I didn't expect... Madam Xi... got angry, it's all Xiao Liu Not good...Huang Ama don't...blame the concubine Xi...okay?"

Others present also nodded their heads, saying that what Brother Six said was true, and it was Xi Concubine who first made insinuations and slandered Concubine De.

"Listen yourself, he is a child under two years old, and he is anxious to speak for you after being frightened by you. It's good for you, he is jealous of other people's promotion, but he vents on the two children. From now on, he will be confined in his own palace , you are not allowed to leave the palace gate for half a step."

Kangxi was also afraid that his punishment would be too harsh and scare the child, so he let it go lightly. However, he had not favored Xi Concubine for a long time and confined her in the palace. I am afraid that he will never think of such a person again.

Yin Zuo is also satisfied with this result, he didn't intend to harm Xi Concubine, but he just retaliated against her for insulting Er Niang in front of so many people, just let her learn a lesson, besides, he was the real one just now He was frightened. When those people surrounded him, what he was most afraid of at that time was to hurt his brother.

Although Xiao Liu is young, he is still a little man who will protect Er Niang!
