The glorious spring scene of the Red House

Soon, Yu Yan lived in this palace for the second year.

Yu Xie's illness has not been cured, and he took care of it intermittently for more than ten days, and in the first month, the root cause of the illness was completely gone.

On the night of New Year's Eve, Yu Yan was alone in the room, listening to the noise outside, he couldn't help coughing twice.

Originally planning to think about Yu Yan who went to bed early, but temporarily changed his mind, listening to the sounds outside, he still wanted to feel the atmosphere of this festival, even if he listened to it with his ears, it would be good.

When it was midnight, Yu Yan counted the ringing of the bell, and when he counted to twelve, he prepared to cover himself with a quilt and go to sleep.

Yu Yu knelt on the bed with the quilt on, and felt a cold wind blowing from behind him.

"It's a good thing you didn't fall asleep, otherwise who am I going to give this noodle to?"

Yu Yan turned around, and saw Ning Zhaorong, wearing a gauze hat and round-necked tunic robe, standing pretty.The black gauze is decorated with seasonal flowers, making Ning Zhaorong even more beautiful.

"Why are you back? Don't say it will be later..."

Ning Zhaorong took out a bowl of Longevity Noodles from the food box she carried as if by magic

"A few hours ago, I met Cui Siji, and I just remembered that today is your birthday. You see, I'm so busy that I forgot your birthday. Come on, eat this bowl of noodles quickly, eat When it's over, you'll be another year older.

"

Yu Xun's eyes were a little moist, but since the New Year's Eve couldn't cry, Yu Xun had no choice but to raise his head, and waited for the tears in his eyes to dry before speaking.

"I'm a child in my family. I don't even remember what birthday I have. Anyway, it's always lively and lively at this time, but not deserted."

Yu Yan put on a coat, sat down at the table, picked up chopsticks and started eating.

"Hey, hey... these are longevity noodles, you can't bite them off, you have to eat them in one bite."

Yu Yan put the noodles full of noodles in front of his mouth, thought for a while, then put them down, only picked up a few noodles, and sucked them all into his mouth with a "slip".

Seeing that Yu Yan was eating happily, Ning Zhaorong packed up the food box and said, "Eat slowly, and go to bed early after eating. I'll bring you some food back when the sun rises."

Because Yu Xing had something to eat in his mouth, he could only nod his head to show that he had heard it.

The sky was twilight, and all the palace servants in Changchun Palace wore their best clothes and went to the main hall.

According to the routine in the palace, on this day, all the masters and ladies in the palace will give some money to the palace servants.

Yu Yan also has a copy.

Ning Zhaorong peeled a tangerine and said: "Your illness is still not fully recovered. If you don't go to the empress, I will bring it back for you. I specially picked a good quality orange for you. In addition, the empress rewarded you. You have a pair of jade rabbit hairpins for you to wear during the Lantern Festival."

The hairpin stem is made of gold, with laurel leaves carefully carved on it, and a little rabbit carved from white jade is inlaid on the head of the hairpin. The most wonderful thing is that the position of the rabbit's eyes is inlaid with a red treasure the size of a sesame seed.

There is a pair of hairpins in front, and other gold and silver hairpins of different shapes are not enough to look at.

"It's too precious, I'm too embarrassed to accept it." Yu Yan didn't even dare to touch it, for fear of knocking off the ruby ​​on it.

Ning Zhaorong removed the white network on the orange petal, and Yu Yan stuffed a petal into his mouth.

"The empress gave it to you, and you should show your thanks. When it comes to the seventh day, you pick up the scriptures again and copy a few more scriptures. It will not be in vain for the empress's affection for you."

Yu Xing went in the direction of the main hall of Changchun Palace and bowed to express his gratitude to Concubine Shu.

Before the Shangyuan Festival, the Ninth Prince sent another letter to the Changchun Palace, saying that the disaster relief work has ended, but the houses of the people have not been rebuilt, and a large number of people have been displaced. In order to prevent chaos, they had to stay in the local area. Peace of mind.

The Ninth Prince also said in the letter that the carriages and horses for the return trip were all ready.As long as the ground thaws and the local people can rebuild their homes, they can go back on horseback.

Concubine Shu was very happy. On the day of Shangyuan Festival, she gave a lot of money to the servants in Changchun Palace.

This is just a letter to Concubine Shu, of course there is also a formal report to the imperial court, as well as an excerpt presented to the imperial court by local officials.

It's just that the former dynasty and the inner palace were so separated that the female family members of the inner palace had no way of knowing what was going on above the court.

In the letters from the Ninth Prince to Concubine Shu, they always report good news but not worries, so Concubine Shu has no way of knowing how the Ninth Prince's errand is going.

One day, Concubine Shu took a group of palace attendants, as well as Yu Yu, to Baoling Palace to pray for blessings.Concubine Shu left Yu Yan in front of the Buddha and asked her to recite scriptures, while she herself went to the presiding officer of Baoling Palace to talk about Buddhism.

Yu Yan hadn't finished reading a scripture, and those who stayed in Changchun Palace rushed to Baoling Palace and told Concubine Shu that it was the emperor's evening meal, and he wanted to come to Changchun Palace for dinner.

The palace servants accompanying Concubine Shu were even more excited than Concubine Shu when they heard the news.

"Congratulations, empress, you have to go back to the palace immediately to prepare."

Concubine Shu was twisting the Buddhist beads in her hands, and said without sadness or joy: "What's the hurry, I didn't say anything, Your Majesty will not go to my Changchun Palace until evening. I haven't finished reading this Buddhist scriptures yet, how can I go back, and I can't annoy the Bodhisattva. "

The palace people are in a hurry to plead guilty.

It can't be blamed that these palace people are too excited, this is really rare, today it is very rare to come to the palace of the concubine.Today, as I get older, it is rare to recruit concubines, even if there are, it is to recruit those who are still young and low-ranking women.

How can it not be exciting to hear a sudden order today?

After reading the scriptures and talking about the Buddha.Concubine Shu returned to Changchun Palace, and followed her usual schedule, doing things step by step, and did not change anything at all just because His Majesty was coming.

Seeing Concubine Shu's attitude, those palace people who were a little excited calmed down, and followed their usual manners, doing their duties.

It is not good to talk about the emperor in this palace, but no one else can know what is going on in his heart.

Yu Yan looked at the calm Concubine Shu from the side, and she understood somewhat.Sitting in the position of Concubine Shu, it is impossible to go up.There are people sitting in the positions of the empress and the imperial concubine, and both of them are in good health and have made no major mistakes. It is impossible to make room for others in the short term.

Concubine Shu's son and daughter have all grown up, and they have their own entrustments. Most of the things don't need Concubine Shu, the mother, to worry about.

Not to mention having no desires or desires, but at least Concubine Shu doesn't need to deliberately please Jinshang, she only needs to deal with it carefully.

At night, I will stay overnight in Changchun Palace, which makes everyone in the palace lose their eyes.The last time I stayed in this Changchun Palace last time was many years ago.

Xia Zhaorong put on some clothes and got up. Seeing that Yu Yan was still copying scriptures, she said softly, "Why aren't you sleeping? It's the same when you copy during the day."

"I went to Baoling Palace during the day, and I didn't copy what should be copied. I have to make up. If I delay writing until tomorrow, wouldn't I be slack." Yu Yan picked up his pen and continued.

Xia Zhaorong saw that Yu Xun had her own reasons, so she took a piece of clothing and put it on Yu Xun: "Then it's not too late. It's you, you set yourself how much you have to write every day, and your mother didn't say anything."

Seeing Yu Xun's hard work, Xia Zhaorong was naturally happy, but she was afraid that Yu Xun worked too hard and would ruin his health, so he had to remind him all the time.

Thinking that when the Ninth Prince came back, Yu Yan would have to go to Sijisi, Xia Zhaorong was quite disappointed.

Today I just stayed in Changchun Palace for one night, the wind direction in the palace has changed, those old people in the palace thought that today they have changed their nature, they don't like delicate flowers, they think of the old days.Those concubines who hadn't often served bed for a long time began to dress up to compete with the young ones.

It's a pity that I didn't change my sex today, I only came to Changchun Palace once, and I fell asleep with a delicate young woman again.
