Chapter 103 The first time I handled the job (1)

On New Year's Day morning, Zaiying crawled out of the warm bed quickly. The eunuch in the room served the little master to put on his clothes, washed up, and waited for a while. When the little girl in the neighbor's room rubbed her eyes with a confused look on her face and pouted her mouth, Zaiying took her sister's hand, "Little sister, wake up, wake up!"

"Yeah~!~" Princess Yinghui hummed impatiently, and passively held her little hand for her brother, walking towards her mother's bedroom.

When they arrived at the palace gate, Liufu, Yang Saner and Jingyu and several eunuchs and maids knelt down to pay their respects, "The two little masters are lucky!"

"Don't." Zaiying waved her hand in a big look, "Ama is inside?"

"yes."

"Eunuch Lu, please go in and reply, and say that my sister and I will come and pay tribute to Ama and my mother."

Liu Fu nodded with a chuckling, turned around and entered. After a while, he turned out again, "The emperor said, let the two little masters go in."

Zaiying pulled her sister into Tingyuxuan's warm pavilion. The bed had already been cleaned up. In addition to Ama and her mother, the queen was sitting! The two women's cheeks were flushed, and their eyebrows were full of spring, and they smiled embarrassedly.

"Son (daughter) pays homage to Ama! I wish Amalong good health and longevity." After celebrating the emperor, the two children turned around and bowed to the queen and mother, "Come on, come quickly to the queen."

The queen smiled and reached out and called the two children in front of her, touched the child's smooth and fair face, and said to Youjia with a smile, "Girl, I really envy you. Look at your two children, they are so beautiful, but how did they learn this respect and courteousness?"

"Where?" You Jiashi said with a smile, "It's the eldest princess and the fifth prince who are outstanding in talent! I two little enemies,..."

The fifth prince Zaichun was born in the fifth year of Xianfeng and was the same age as the sixth prince Zaichun. However, after a few months of age, because he was the emperor's legitimate son, he has always been the most favored object in the central palace.

The queen sighed and said softly, "Fifth Prince, the child, the emperor, I wonder if it's time to let him go to the study room to study? I'm always in the palace like this, growing up in the women and the eunuchs, and I'm afraid it's not good for him."

"Huh?" The emperor had been wandering around for a long time. Since he had a deep love between Concubine Lan and Concubine Yu in Qingfeng Garden, he seemed to have fallen in love with this special taste. When he flirted with the signs, he always flirted with two people at once. Yesterday, in the Qingyan Palace of Jiuzhou, he gave the banquet to the ministers, and returned to the mountains and rivers. The empress and other public concubines, the children who had grown up spoke childishly and prayed well, and enjoyed a family banquet. At night, they were too lazy to turn over the signs and passed the order directly, and the empress and Concubine Jia were serving Tingyuxuan.

Under a joyful mood, the two women gradually relaxed their arms and became very enthusiastic. Until they woke up in the morning, the emperor still remembered them!

He was stunned for a moment when he heard the queen's words, "Zai Meng is still young, so wait another year." He said, "Second Prince, are you ready?"

"Yes, when I replied to Ama, my son was ready to stop working. Just wait for Ama to pass the imperial edict, my son would leave the palace and wish the new year to several masters."

"Although you are young, you are their master after all. This time you celebrate the house to pay New Year's greetings to your master, and it is the first time you have gone out to the palace to do business. In addition to being polite and upholding integrity, you should also have a prince when you go to worship. Don't dress like your brother, and don't dress up fancyly, without any of you being calm and laugh at me."

"Yes, Ama's holy will be like heaven, and his son has recorded it."

"Also, go and go back early, don't delay it for too long, so that your mother will worry."

"yes."

The emperor looked at the child's green face and shining eyes. The father really loved him from the bottom of his heart, but he did not show any of his face. "Come here." He called the child closer and personally sorted out the folds of his clothes for him. "The weather was cold in the morning, and he wore so little, so why don't he be afraid of getting sick from the cold? When you go out later,... Liufu?"

"The slave is here."

"Go and take my fox fur cloak and give it to the second prince."

After all, Zaiying is a child under ten years old. She grew up in the palace and was surrounded by eunuchs, palace maids and other servants. Although her mother was close, she could not offset the regret and loss of having few fatherly love. Since she grew up a little, she began to deliberately restrain her words and deeds, just to set an example and win her favor with her father.

However, the effect is not great. Amma is different from ordinary fathers. They are fathers and sons, and are also monarchs and ministers. One is that there is a ancestral system in the palace, and Ama's grandson is not a child. Even if the emperor loves his children, it is difficult to show it. Secondly, the state affairs are heavy and there is not much time to talk with the children. Therefore, after several years, Zaiying has long been used to this cold communication between fathers and sons, just like speaking in the temple.

This time, Ama personally reached out to tidy up her clothes and helped him put her hat straight. The child seemed to be so scared that he took a step back at a loss. He thought of the ancestral teachings that the master said, "The destiny of the king and father must not be disobeyed, so he hurriedly stopped moving." But he was still in a daze in his expression, and even forgot to say thanks to him when he knelt down and thanked him.

After the mother reminded her, "Why don't you thank the Emperor Ama for your reward?" Zai Ying reacted and knelt down to thank her, "Son thanked the Emperor Ama for your reward."

"Get up, go to your mother's side and see what she has to say to you?"

Zaiying still seemed to have not woken up from the impact just now, and came to her mother obediently like a puppet. He heard Youjia pull herself over and say something, and what it was, but she didn't listen to it at all. Xiaoxiao's heart was full of peace and joy, and she realized that at this moment, she was the happiest child in the world!

Looking back, the father was whispering to coax his sister to speak in a low voice. The father and daughter kept laughing. Occasionally, they raised their heads and met their own eyes. The eyes were full of encouragement. Zaiying's heart was pounding, and she just wanted to go forward regardless of everything and replace her sister's position.

After saying a few words to his mother and mother, Zaiying met and knelt down, and turned around and went out.

As a mother, Youjia is naturally concerned about her children. She watched her son quickly step out of the throne, smiled and moved a little to her husband, pulled her daughter's hand, and said to him, "Master, how happy the second prince?"

"Oh? Is that?" The emperor did not take it to heart and continued to talk to the little girl, "What did you say?"

"Emperor~!" You Jia's wife twisted her head half-sexy, and the charming young woman's rippling attitude made the queen, who was also a woman, feel her heart shaking, let alone the only man, "Come on, take the second princess out!"

"Yeah~!" The second princess shouted loudly, hugged her father's neck, and refused to let go. If she tried hard, she would scream miserably, which made the emperor very amused and angry. She had to take back the order and send Liufu and some people out.

The queen and Youjia watched the father and daughter fight each other, and finally chuckled repeatedly as if Ama had lost. After sitting for a while, the queen stood up and saluted the emperor, Youjia sent her out of the hall.

You Jia turned around and came back, sat down next to her husband, and said softly, "Your Majesty, how happy the second prince is today?"

"Yes, Zaiying is an obedient and sensible." Since the second year of Xianfeng, he recruited Youjia into the palace in Rehe, the emperor has always been very attached to him. He loved the house and the house. He also liked the twin brothers and sisters she gave birth to. As I said to her, the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty made the son worthy of the mother and the mother worthy of the son. Today, I saw the second prince's answers and actions were appropriate. The emperor was satisfied and held Youjia's hands with his back hand. "In the future, Ying'er's child will have the opportunity to experience in the future. Today I will go out of the palace to greet the master, but Xiao Kezhi's comparison - as long as you are willing to let the child go out, I have some errands waiting for him!"

"Look at what you said? Ying'er is from the blood of the Tian family. It's his job to help the king and to help the father. It's like I, a mother-in-law, are reluctant to let go?"

When Youjia gave birth to a pair of children, she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was still young and charming for several years. The emperor looked at her beloved concubine's delicate facial features and a picturesque face. After fighting last night, her body, which had already felt weak, had a look of looking up again. She hugged Youjia's shoulder and kissed her face, "Niu Niu?"

You Jia was both ashamed and happy. Yesterday, when the couple was in her palace, the couple had the first taste of the strange smell. The queen felt that she couldn't let go at first, but soon, she became addicted to the sea of ​​desire. Until the morning, she felt extremely happy, and even her spirit seemed to be a little refreshed.

At this moment, the emperor looked infatuated. After being married to him for a long time, he knew his husband's habits, but...? She slowly refused, "Emperor... are the servants here?"

The emperor looked up and saw that the pavilion was empty, "Where is anyone?"

You Jia was stunned. Sure enough, at some point, there was no one in Tingyuxuan, and there were only two people sitting on the soft couch holding hands, "Where are they?"

"Well, they are all very sensible slaves." The emperor laughed, stood up, took off his clothes in three or two, and stood up with the high-spirited young general under his crotch, lifted up the brocade quilt and lay in first.

Even though Yu Jia knew it was not a problem, she couldn't stand her husband's scorching eyes. She was afraid that others would see it, so she timidly untied her clothes and only wore a bag and got to her husband's side.

The emperor was very energetic, and today was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and all political affairs were stopped. It was rare to relax. He hugged the half-naked concubine in his arms, his fingers were flexibly on her neck and behind her waist. After a while, Youjia's breathed and his body completely softened.

The emperor pulled his hand and lifted a small pocket of lotus-red satin texture from the brocade quilt, "It smells so good! Niu Niu, I really don't love your body enough!"

Youjia's spring love surged, and the phoenix eyes snuggled in his arms with blurred eyes, "Emperor, slave...Niu Niu, I love you too!"

The emperor sighed in his heart, lifted the quilt, and before Niu Niu's shy scream had fallen into the warm gaze, he had already risen up and covered it with jealousy.

*********************************************

A small back-mounted carriage, An Da from the Interior Office, two eunuchs were by his side. Zai Ying and a few others left the Old Summer Palace and headed straight to Nancheng. This trip was an order to pay New Year's greetings, but the emperor did not ask him to go to which house first and which one house later. Although Zai Ying was young, he was very smart. He ordered people to find a map of the imperial city and checked it. The southern city where Zhou Zupei was located was the farthest from the Old Summer Palace, then the Weiren Mansion, Xu Tong Mansion, and finally Weng Xincun Mansion. On the first day of the Lunar New Year last year, the emperor arrived at Weng Mansion. Seeing that his family was in a narrow place, he was happy and opened a golden mouth and rewarded him with the mansion in Chenghuai Garden, Haidian.

This was originally awarded to the important minister Zhang Tingyu by Emperor Shizong, because he was old and had a day without paying 360 days a year. He was busy all year round and worked hard, and was quite close to the Old Summer Palace, so he placed it in the last place to visit - even if he stayed for a while, it would not be a problem.

Since he grew up, it was the first time Zaiying took only a few Andas around him. The eunuchs left the palace alone. Every year when the emperor moved from the Forbidden City to the Old Summer Palace, he could also take advantage of the time to follow the bustling scenery in the capital. However, at that time, the official road was filled with Qianqing Palace guards, Shenji Camp guards and the officers sent by the admiral of the Nine Gates to suppress the order. The roadside was full of people who knelt down to welcome the emperor. They couldn't even see what they looked like. What's the point?

This time it was very different. When the New Year arrived, Beijing was prosperous. It was already lively just after the morning. Various shops opened to attract customers, and the shouts of hawking and shouting kept coming, and it was a mess.

"The sound of wind and rain, the sound of reading is heard." Zaiying put down the curtain of the car and murmured to himself, turning around and sitting on the cushion, "Can you carry water? I'm thirsty."

"Yes, water, rose dew, and osmanthus dew, what do you want to drink?"

"Just drink water." Taking the water jug ​​made Zaiying drink all his stomach. The carriages and horses had reached the boundary of Nancheng, not far from the Shamao Hutong where Zhou Zupei was, but it was difficult to move forward. Nancheng is mostly a residence where officials from other provinces live. It was the first day of the Lunar New Year. When we greeted each other, there was no way to get stuck, and we couldn't get up even if we wanted to.

Zaiying raised her small body and looked at the curtain of the car, "No, there are several more families! If this continues, when will she go back to the palace? Dexin, let the carriage and horses stop, and we walk over!"

Dexin was startled, "Little master, this is not good. The master is a delicate figure. If something goes wrong, how can a slave afford it?"

"What are you afraid of? Last year, did the Emperor Ama just take Liu Fu out of the palace with him, and he didn't even have a guard. Isn't he still nothing?" Zai Ying raised his face and said loudly, "I'm not afraid, Ama blames you, I'll take care of everything!" While saying that, he knocked on the car a few times, "Stop, stop!"

The carriage stopped and Zaiying was the first to jump out, "It's better outside, it's much more comfortable than in the car."

Dexin also got out of the car with him and looked around. Fortunately, there was no annoying guy, so there should be no problem. "My little master, Master Zhou's mansion is not far away. Let's go there?"

A master and several servants walked through the streets. Although Zaiying was like a little adult in the palace, the child was unable to suppress his nature. Seeing that he had no scruples, he used his short and flexible body to go to the crowded stalls on the street from time to time, which made Dexin and others anxious, but they could not lose their temper. In the end, there was no choice but to hold him in his arms and run away.

When we arrived at the entrance of Shamao Hutong, there were several official sedan chairs under the screen wall. A dozen men dressed as sedan chairmen were standing or squatting, talking together. Seeing three people coming in from the entrance of the alley, everyone stood up and looked carefully. They found that one of them was actually holding a teenage boy in his arms, twisting his body, "Let me down, let me down!"

Dexin saw that nothing was wrong, put down Zaiying and whispered, "Little master, the emperor has told me that it is not allowed to spread it outside. When I see the master, I will say a few words and say it. Don't yell loudly."

Zaiying remembered what Ama said before leaving, and her little heart shivered and nodded obediently, "I remember what Ama said, go into the village quietly, don't shoot. Dexin, what does this sentence mean?"

"I don't know either!" Dexing agreed, took Zaiying's little hand, went to the door, bowed to the subordinate, "Second Master? Please."

"Oh, Second Master, please." The New Year is coming, and it seems to be a little festive smell of this festival. The concierge at Zhou Zupei's mansion is also very polite, "What do you call it?"

"I dare not, this is the second young master in my mansion. I have been here to pay New Year's greetings to Master Zhou. Please give me a message?"

I was stunned for a moment at the door. How could this listener in a robe in a floral robe speak in a mess? Look at the child he was leading, he was so round and smooth, with a big demeanor. There were two servants in green hats standing behind him, with white faces and no beards, and his fingers pointed, as if he was a castrator?

A thought suddenly flashed across the doorman, "This is not the child of a prince and noble family, who came to greet the master, right?" It is said that he should be invited to the hall, but there are other distinguished guests here today, so I'm afraid it's not easy to disturb me!" He thought for a while, "Then, please wait a moment, the younger one will give you a reply."

Today, there were indeed distinguished guests at Zhou Zupei's mansion. They were not others. They were Prince Gong Yi, who demoted the emperor from the court and imprisoned him in the mansion.

Since the incident of private memorials broke out, Yi Zhen has lost all his face: a prince of a country is highly valued by his king and father, but for his own personal reputation, he has committed such an ignorant behavior, guilty and shameless discussion. In more than a month, his originally plump and rosy cheeks have also lost weight. Even as the New Year approaches, every family is full of joy, only Prince Gong's mansion is deserted everywhere - it may not be that others don't want to be lively, but just look at the master's face is dark, and no one has the intention to do that.

With the sound of firecrackers coming at night, Yi got up and washed up before the hour of Mao. I guess that when dawn, a colleague from the General Administration Office would visit the office to pay New Year's greetings. He really didn't have the intention, so he hid out on the excuse - to come to Zhou Zupei's mansion, one to greet him, and the other hand, he also knew that Zhou Zupei was in the study room now, and this was the Qingshui Office. There were not many officials in the court coming and going, so he avoided the embarrassment when meeting everyone.
Chapter completed!
