Across the Red Mansion: Qingwen Upgrade Road

Liang Jiugong bent down to lead the way, "The ladies said they would pick them up in the afternoon, so as not to suffer from heatstroke standing outside." Kangxi smiled, "They are thoughtful, and that girl is also blessed. How is Jia Yuanchun?" Liang Jiugong thought of Jia Yuanchun's self-satisfied look, and sneered in his heart, "Jia promises to be in good health, so he can take care of the baby." Kangxi didn't say anything more.

Yinfeng looked at the clothes in front of him and the cute horse, the corners of his eyes were twitching. "Is this dress really going to be worn out tonight? Isn't the reason why we came here to discuss and let them change their plans? Why don't you talk?"

Yinfeng was hugged by Seventeen's calf, with an embarrassed expression on his face, "Well, second brother, this is what the younger brothers want, why don't we just wear it once?" The tone is weak, but Yinfeng doesn't want to.I am a prince, how can I wear such undignified clothes?You have to show your face in front of the officials!

"You can't stand their entanglement, but I can. I won't wear this clothes anyway." Yinfeng insisted, but Yinzhen replied coolly, "But this is Huang Ama's will, I heard Huang Ama is also dressed tonight."

Yinreng's heart froze, he glared at the fourth child who was tearing him apart, and tore off his clothes, "Forget it, I really shouldn't believe your position, but after a while, it was settled by a few kids. It’s something you can’t resist, it’s different from those of you who don’t stand firm.”

After finishing speaking, he proudly went into the inner room to change clothes, leaving a group of princes big and small laughing, gesturing at the new clothes and talking about the plan.At this time, newly dressed Yinzhen and Yinxuan came in, Yinzhen looked at the jade rabbit on their chest, taking advantage of the delicate faces of his younger brothers, it was surprisingly cute.

"Your work is done? Are you wearing this clothes now? Why are the clothes of the two of you so similar? Didn't you give them to two different rabbits?"

Yinzhen tugged at his sleeves, "Isn't it because Yinyu said that since we are brothers, we should wear the same clothes. It is also fate to be in the same zodiac. Tonight, I want to let people know that our brotherhood is very good. Brothers don't know, this person After going out for a while and coming back, he was very clingy to me, and it was so disgusting. The worst thing is to hear people say that our brothers are not in the same heart, but just a piece of clothes can make people know that we are good brothers? Only he is a fool. Such simplicity."

Yintang's voice seemed to despise Yinyu, but the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden. He was obviously very happy to be treated so specially by Yinyu, okay?Yinfei had nothing to say this time, a group of people rushed to change their clothes, but they all stayed in the room and did not go out.

Concubine Gui and Concubine Yi were talking to Qingwen, when Madam Zitan, who was beside the Empress Dowager, came to pass word that the Empress Dowager wanted Qingwen to visit.The imperial concubine got up and pulled Qingwen back, "Sister Yifei, let's go. There is nothing left and right, so let's go more."

In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Kangxi smiled and asked Qingwen to sit down, "Girl, can you take a look at the clothes I and Huang Erniang are wearing?" Qingwen raised her eyes to look at Kangxi's bright yellow clothes. Those dragons in the past are very different.The key is that Kangxi's clothes are too cute, let's forget about a cute little dragon in the center, what's the matter with the one, two, three, 45 and smaller dragon cubs around it?

Wait, what is that dragon cub's hand that looks like Yinji, no, what is it playing with in his claws?Dragon egg?Cang Tian, ​​and the little dragon who had just broken its shell, were hugged and coaxed by a loving-faced dragon mother.what the hell is this?Who had the idea?Although she was slandered in her heart, Qingwen would not speak out.Obviously □□ like this dress, okay?Even the empress dowager wore the same attire, except that the airy little dragon in the center became a kind dragon mother.

"The emperor's clothes are rare, but they are the same as those worn by the empress dowager. At first glance, there are two mothers and children. It is heartwarming to see." The empress dowager was happy, "The girl's words are beautiful, and the Ai family likes to talk to Qingqing. Emperor, this Let’s just wear the clothes in private, and wear the original clothes at night. Our royal dignity must not be lost.”

Kangxi was unwilling, "The world belongs to me. If I want to wear it like this, no one dares to say anything. We all wear it. I have never worn such interesting clothes. The Queen Mother will follow my wish."

The queen mother was pleased with Kangxi's filial piety, but also worried about causing trouble for Kangxi.Qingwen especially understands the empress dowager's contradictory mood. After all, she is not her own child, so she can't help but think about what she does. "Empress Dowager, if you want your slaves to say that you are the most honorable person in the world, what kind of clothes do you want to wear? You are only envious of the women who are present when you wear them. When they go back, it will spread the word." Come on, maybe it will become the fashion of this year."

Kangxi asked: "What is fashion?" Qingwen smiled, hugged the Queen Mother's arm, and said affectionately next to the Queen Mother: "Fashion is something between us girls. It is to lead the trend of the times and lead the fashion. The new clothes worn by others The styles of clothes are all learned from us. When people ask, 'Oh, sister-in-law, where did you learn this clothes?', queen mother, emperor, guess what they say?"

The Empress Dowager looked at Kangxi with bright eyes. At this time, it is still necessary for Kangxi to speak out to reassure the Empress Dowager. "It's hard to guess, it must be 'such a novel style, of course I learned it from the most honorable empress dowager in the world.'" After Kangxi finished speaking, he winked mischievously at the empress dowager, who immediately laughed. "Since this is the case, it's time for Aijia to return to fashion. Emperor, you should go to work first, there are still a lot of things to do tonight."

After Kangxi left, Qingwen breathed a sigh of relief, facing a generation of sages still had psychological pressure.Fortunately, I passed the civil servant interview that year, so the pressure was nothing.But Qingwen seemed to know that Kangxi made complaints about a lot of clothes, who came up with the idea?Too bold, I have to communicate with others.Besides, those broken dragon eggs are really cute, a bit like the broken chickens I drew before being taken care of by the hen.There will be a lot of common language.

So who came up with the idea of ​​this dress?Could it be the fifteen or so little ones?Kangxi could only curl his lips and snort coldly, if those little ones could think of such a pattern, he would wish to hide under the quilt and let no one see.Then wear it out on a certain day, causing a group of people to be amazed.In fact, this dress was conceived by Kangxi intimidating Liang Jiugong and his confidant eunuchs.The inspiration came from all the blueprints drawn by Qingwen contributed by the tenth elder brother. Liang Jiugong knew the deep meaning of the emperor's doing so, so he called all the confidant eunuchs around the tenth elder brother, and Liang Jiugong made up enough Ten people gathered in the side hall of Qianqing Palace, and used their imagination to the blueprint in front of them.

In the end, it was Su Peisheng who knew Qingwen best along with Elder Brother Shi, holding the picture of the warm sun in spring and saying, "My father-in-law, how about this picture?" Then a group of people had fun and gathered together A lot of bad ideas gathered into the current embroidery pattern.All the people involved in this matter were silent and never said what they had done in Qianqing Palace these few days.

At about six o'clock in the evening, Qingwen was sent out of the corner gate by Shuiyu herself, and quietly mixed in with the audience waiting at the main gate.However, Qingwen's arrival was still noticed by those who had been paying attention to her surroundings.This person is the mother of the future Emperor Qianlong, "Niuhulu's Lanshu".Lan Shu was just brought in by her cousin to pay her respects. For the daughter of the little fifth rank official, she was dazzled by today's big scene.

It's just that everyone's clothes were clothes she had never seen before. The bored Lan Shu kept observing everyone's expressions, and then whispered to her cousin about their family background.Just when Lan Shu was a little tired, she saw a group of people coming out of the corner gate not far away.

The little girl before the fight was very delicate and beautiful, and her clothes seemed to be of high quality.What's more, this person came out of the palace. At this time, shouldn't they be waiting here at home?

Lan Shu pulled her cousin's sleeves, and Niu Hulu Pan'er, who was already a little bored, turned her head and scolded impatiently: "You can't live in peace for a while, why are you talking so much? This is the imperial palace, not yours." The small courtyard has very strict rules. If I knew it earlier, I wouldn’t bring you here, and I don’t understand any rules.”

Lan Shu bit the corner of her mouth, suppressed the resentment and jealousy in her heart, and said in a soft voice: "Cousin sister's friendship, Lan Shu naturally remembers. It's just that the corner door opened over there just now, and a group of people came out, but they came to our place Waiting together, a little strange, I want to ask my cousin if she knows her."

Niu Hulu Pan'er took a look, and her eyes lit up, "You mean the woman in Dorogege over there?" Lan Shu nodded, "It's her, I saw it clearly just now."

Niu Hulu Pan'er patted Lan Shu on the shoulder happily, "It's yours. Fortunately, you found out. I was always wondering why she didn't come. It turned out that she had entered the palace."

As he spoke, he quietly moved to Qingwen's side, and greeted with a smile, "Duoluogege is always well? Niu Hulu hope you are polite." Qingwen looked at the woman in front of her strangely, as if she had never seen her before, but Niu Hulu The surname Lu itself should be taken seriously.Then he returned the gift with a smile, "Niu Hulu is polite, Ge Ge came early today."

Pan'er said familiarly: "Ama was summoned by the emperor, and we came early if there was nothing to do at home. It is the honor of our Niuhulu clan to enter the palace to meet the imperial concubine, and we should wait even a day."

Qingwen smiled, this person is straightforward, but I don't know if it is true.But it has nothing to do with me, "Ge Ge said that the palace gate is about to open, does Ge Ge want to go in with me?"

Niu Hulu Pan'er couldn't wait for this, but there was a whole family of female relatives behind him who wanted to be together, and Er Niang was also talking to others, so he had to give up this opportunity to curry favor with the future ten Fujin. "Forget it, I'll stay with Er Niang. But at night we can watch the lanterns together. The lanterns in the palace are very beautiful." Qingwen smiled and agreed. The sign entered the palace gate.

In fact, Qingwen doesn't need to participate, but after this kind of incident, Qingwen, as the prince Fujin, can't avoid it every time, and it's good to know the process.The protected flowers and plants cannot withstand the ravages of wind and rain, and the children will have a long way to go.The banquet that night was very grand, all the princes changed the form of presenting gifts one by one in previous years, this year they presented presents together with their mother-in-law.

The parent-child outfits of each family dazzled the eyes of those ministers who didn't know who they were, and many female family members have quietly asked where are these custom-made clothes?Did the embroiderers in the palace have their brains opened after eating ginseng fruit?You must know that there are not as many styles in the palace as there are outside. In order not to make mistakes, Xiu Niang can't wait to use a style for ten years.

When all the princes stood in front of Kangxi and wished Kangxi a long life in unison, Kangxi's mouth was about to bend into a smile.But Suo'etu and Mingzhu looked at each other depressedly, with calculations in their eyes, could this be the idea of ​​the other party?Then this time it was a good time, why didn't the prince (Big Baylor) tell me?

Alas, the two power ministers have been fighting for a lifetime, and they think that everything that is in the limelight is the other's idea. They never thought that the little prince underneath is also very smart.All in all, this banquet was a success. After returning home, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty stayed up all night, wondering whether the behavior of the princes today was the emperor hinting that he should be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and not to participate in party disputes.All the princes are also expressing their attitudes. No matter who takes the throne in the future, they are all brothers and will not harm anyone.After all, blood is thicker than water.

When Daiyu entered the palace gate, she didn't see Qingwen, but met Zhaojia Yalan instead.Yalan's mother-in-law is Nalashi, who took care of Zhaojia Malhan, Minister of the Ministry of punishment, obediently.She loves her little daughter 100%, and she smiled happily when she saw Lin Daiyu.This child, Nalashi, knew about it. He was investigated in private, and he was a good boy.

Besides, this girl Lin has a very good relationship with that Duoluogege, and my girl can benefit from playing with her.It wasn't until 07:30 that Daiyu found Qingwen who was sitting in front. Seats at this banquet are also particular.Qingwen's rank and family background made her want to hide, and the Queen Mother liked to talk to Qingwen from time to time, expressing her views on the style of a certain lantern, which lady's hairpin matched well, and so on.

When people are old, they also have a girlish heart. Which woman doesn't like things that can make herself beautiful.Ever since Qingwen boldly discussed with the queen mother how about the style of the gold hairpin she brought today?Does the Queen Mother like this?Qingqing will also bring you a good one next time to honor you, okay?What style does the Queen Mother like?

And so on and so on, the people in the Compassion Ning Palace have never thought that the Empress Dowager has so many opinions on jewelry.What's more, they didn't know that the queen mother also liked the fresh styles of these little girls. At most, they just took the fresh styles sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the queen mother to choose.

But the styles sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are all worn by the elderly. What new tricks can there be?How can there be fresh and chic clothes worn by little girls?It's just that the craftsmanship and workmanship are not as good as the outside.Since then, the Empress Dowager has opened up her conversations. Every time Qingwen came, she would first look at her from a distance and criticize her, and then she would sit and whisper together affectionately like grandparents and grandchildren, ignoring anyone.

It made the imperial concubine and concubine Yi who came along every time feel very resentful, but thinking about the status of the ninth and tenth in the queen mother's heart, and touching the hairpin on her head, alas, she is really a girl who makes people love and hate , don't care about her, in the future, we just don't accompany her.The two empresses now kind of know what it feels like for those precious daughters not to get close to them, but they are still a little happy to see it.

I agreed to ignore this girl, and the next time she hadn't entered the palace, she would send someone to pick her up early, and she would happily go to the empress dowager's palace to talk, and this kind of thing went on and on, and she never got tired of it.The most pitiful ones are the big maids like Shuiyu and Xiuning. The ladies complain about the same thing every time, and I can't persuade them, but once I persuade them, I get involved.Just let them play, and it will be fine if Gege marries Master Shi in the future.

Several girls got together and led a group of nuns to Qi Jia's mansion, and Yue Ying and Qi Jiajing came out quickly.Qi Jiajing was still so gentle and delicate, with the appearance of a son, and only after a few careful instructions did he let a few people leave.There are quite a few guards around, and there are so many of them, they are not afraid of accidents.Looking at the colorful lanterns through the apron, people were crowded and crowded, there was no fake smile in the palace, and the relaxed and leisurely mood made the girls smile.

Yinzhen and Yinju seem to have grown up a lot after going through the Jiangnan incident.In particular, there are three brothers Lu Zishan, Lu Zixin, and Lu Zikong beside Yinji, who gather together to learn and practice kung fu and make rapid progress.Because Kangxi said before that he asked Lu Zikong and Lu Zixin brothers to accompany the fifteenth reading, and he will go to the study in June this year.

Now, in his spare time, Yinzhen is a tutor for Lu Zikong and Lu Zixin, and Yinzhen is practicing martial arts with Lu Zishan, and he is bound to become a master.Brother Leng Yi and the third brother have now officially become the personal bodyguards of Elder Brother Ten, and there is not a single maid in Yin's residence, so we will talk about it when he and Qingwen get married next year.

Kangxi didn't want to do this at first, saying that a dignified prince needs to have a few maids who teach personnel affairs before he gets married, so why can't Yinyi?The Empress Dowager came forward to persuade Kangxi about this matter, and only said: "If you still want to eat meat behind the back of Wen Jingmin from the Imperial Hospital, don't worry about it. Besides, are there any people who can live as well as Qingqing? I won’t dislike your son because of this matter. As an Ama, you can just wait for your grandson with peace of mind.” Kangxi was helpless, and besides, he was also very satisfied with Qingwen. The key is that Qingqing’s meat is delicious, and the imperial kitchen I was instructed by that old man Wen Jingmin to give me a fixed amount of meat every day.With the empress dowager's decree, Kangxi was really heartbroken.Only when Qingwen gave food to the younger ones and the old ten, he called the children to have a meal together in order to grab a few bites.It's hard to be an emperor, but it's even harder to be a good emperor.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the general election. Masters Qianyu and Ziyan had already retired, and only Mother Jiang and Mother Zhou were still by Qingwen's side.Bi Li's mana has recovered by [-]%, and she still looks like a little snake on weekdays.Everyone in the family knew that Qingwen had Zhuyeqing's pet, but this incident had not spread to the outside world.

The day before the general election, Mother Zisang, who was next to the noble concubine, reappeared in the current Jingguo Mansion. This is the plaque that Kangxi bestowed on Min Yuezheng when he took over the position of Shangshu.Mother Jiang and Mother Zhou respectfully welcomed Mother Zisang in. Qingwen, dressed in a smoky blue flag dress, gave a half salute to Mother Zisang in an elegant and dignified way, which was regarded as a sign of respect.Seeing Qingwen's eyes were full of smiles, Zisang stepped forward and saluted Qingwen, so that Qingwen hurriedly got someone to help her up.

"What is Mammy doing? How can I bear it? Let's just talk as before. Mammy, hurry up, it's still April, and the weather is a bit gloomy today. Drink some warm tea before talking." Zi Sang I did it next to Qingwen. Although she was affectionate on the surface, she was a lot restrained in her movements.

"Gege is about to participate in the general election, and it will not be what it used to be in the future. Let's follow the rules. Although Gege's marriage is already obvious, accidents are most likely to happen during the draft. In the past, many good girls stopped before the face. So this time, the empress asked me to speak to Gege well."

Zi Sang took a sip of tea, looked at Qingwen listening seriously, and nodded in satisfaction, "Ge Ge don't worry, it's because girls feel sorry for Ge Ge, and they want to get everything done in advance, so that the We Gege were very happy, and watched the fun smoothly. You must know that the draft is a grand event in our Qing Dynasty, and with this experience, Gege will understand a lot."

Qingwen nodded, "What Mammy said is, I will remember it, I won't be arrogant, I will pass the exam in peace." Zisang held Qingwen's little hand, "Good boy, you are so gege, you know It's fine." The two were chattering, and Min Yue and Fu Jing sat opposite each other in the study, staring at a plate of dim sum in a daze.

Fu Jing took the agarwood box in his hand, stood up and said, "I'll take it to my sister. Ahma thinks about what else is left behind." Min Yue stared blankly at the opened door. The second time is that I really have to leave, and I won't live in my own house in the future.But, I really don't want my daughter to go out!

Fu Jing came back with the banknote and saw that Min Yue was still sitting on the chair in a daze, "Ama, don't worry any more. Don't think about what kind of temper ten elder brother is or what kind of sister is like." , I will come back from time to time even when I am out of the house. Besides, you don’t know where the tenth elder brother’s future residence will be. If it is not far from our house, my sister will not come by then. Go and see the general manager. It is done."

Min Yue was happy, and patted Fu Jing on the shoulder in relief, "My good son, I will do as you say. Let's let your sister enter the palace first, and then I will ask the emperor where the tenth elder brother's residence is set. ? If it can’t be changed, we’ll buy out yards next to each other, not far from the left and right, and it’s the same when we want to see each other.”

Fu Jing is really speechless, having such a silly Ama is enough for everyone to worry about.I don't know why the emperor had his eyes on Min Yue before.Unexpectedly, the Lin family suddenly sent someone to come that night. Qingwen was still a little confused when she was woken up by Madam Zhou. Madam Chen who came to deliver the message knelt down on the ground profusely, kowtowing and begging Qingwen for help. Daiyu.
