The moment of passing through the fragrance

Chapter 3

The Compassion Palace does not look luxurious, but if you look closely at it, you can see that all the furnishings are from the hands of famous masters, and it has gathered hundreds of antiques from the previous year. gas.The Empress Dowager is 75 years old, and she is a kind old lady with silver hair. She leaned on the soft couch, and when she saw Kangxi and his son, she leaned over and pulled Yinfeng up without waiting for the two to finish their salutes. , lovingly touched his bald forehead, pulled him to his side and asked, "Baocheng, are you feeling well? Did you eat well these two days? Did you sleep well? Are the servants doing their best in serving you?"

The famous Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is like any old man who loves the younger generation. With his rough and dry hands stroking Yinreng's head and face, he immediately thought of his grandma in the previous life. She had a car accident and must have died before crossing over. Yes, grandma would be so sad if she knew she was dead, and mom and dad, they only have one child, she is not here, when they get old, who will honor them?She has always avoided thinking about her family, she was afraid of crying because of homesickness, but Xiaozhuang's kind and gentle voice made his eyes red all at once.

"Old ancestor, let's protect Chengdu." Kangxi's first sons were not raised. According to folklore, the more popular the child's nickname, the more they will be blessed by gods and Buddhas. Therefore, Yinfeng's nickname is Baocheng. I always feel that this name is not popular enough. If it is called Gou Er Da Niu or something, maybe she will not wear it here.Since Kangxi changed his name to Yinreng, only the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager in the whole palace could call him by his baby name. Yinreng leaned on the old man, sniffed his nose, and held back his tears: "How are you? I fell asleep at night. Is it warm? Don’t catch a cold. The medicine given by the imperial doctor must be taken on time, and if it is bitter, put a sugar in your mouth.”

"Oh, take a look, emperor." The Empress Dowager held Yinfeng's hand tightly, her face full of surprise: "Look, my precious great-grandson has grown up and will love others."

Yinfeng was embarrassed to say so, he reduced the tears, and asked the ancestor to sit beside her, Kangxi looked at them with a smile, and there were tears of emotion in his eyes.

"When Gege came back, he said, you are so sick that you don't want to talk anymore. The old ancestor was so anxious that he was scratching like a monkey. Now it's all over. Seeing that you are fine, the old ancestor is relieved." The empress dowager When I am old, I think of the past when I was talking, "What my ancestors want most in this life is to go back to the Horqin Prairie once. Baocheng, you don't know that the sky is high and the land is wide on the grassland. As long as you have a horse, you can go anywhere. , no one can hold you back."

Kangxi hurriedly said: "Grandson is preparing to go to the Fortress next year, then let grandson accompany the ancestors to walk around the grassland."

The Empress Dowager smiled and waved her hands: "You can't, you will be surrounded by crowds of people everywhere. If you go to Horqin, Horqin is not the Horqin I remember."

Kangxi was suddenly a little sad.Yinfeng hurriedly said: "Huang Ama is busy, let Baocheng accompany the ancestor. Baocheng accompanied the ancestor to ride horses on the grassland, and he can also hunt and catch eagles."

The Empress Dowager looked at him with satisfaction, raised her skinny hand to touch the side of Yinrong's face, and said kindly: "Okay, let Baocheng accompany me."

The three talked for a while, and Kangxi signaled Yinfeng to kneel down first, because he had something to discuss with the Empress Dowager in private.

As soon as Yinfeng withdrew, the Empress Dowager sighed with restraint: "This child, I'm afraid he misses his mother." Speaking of the empress Renxiao Hesheli who died young, Kangxi couldn't help but sigh: "Grandson is busy with government affairs. , Educating the Crown Prince has failed in his duty."

The Empress Dowager shook her head, and her voice was full of vicissitudes of insight: "The whole world depends on you, so there are naturally things that you can't understand. Xuan Ye, the ancestor only wants you to promise one thing."

Kangxi immediately got up and cupped his hands: "Please teach me your ancestors."

"Bao Cheng lost his father when he was young. You brought him by your side and raised him personally. You love him very much and have high hopes for him. Brothers are all growing up, and there is no guarantee that there will be no friction between brothers. In the future, if Bao Cheng is unlucky, he will make a mistake. , I just hope you remember that he is the only crown prince in the Qing Dynasty, the son you Xuan Ye has hugged, kissed and loved, you must think twice, don't hurt the child's heart!"

The empress dowager's words are sonorous and powerful, she doesn't look like an old lady who is more than seventy years old. Like Kangxi, she has a preference for Yinreng. Yinreng was born when the empress dowager personally sat in the queen's palace. Kangxi also saw his little grandson first.Empress Renxiao left within a few hours after giving birth to the crown prince. Kangxi was so sad that he stopped court for three days. At that time, there was a chaos in the San Francisco, and the palace was in chaos. Kangxi was able to stop court for three days. The Empress Dowager didn't stop her either, so it can be seen that the grandparents and grandchildren treat Yinfeng's mother and son differently.

Kangxi sighed. Since ancient times, the royal family has been seldom warm. His sons must not have brotherly murders. Besides, Yinfeng is his beloved child and the most perfect heir in his mind. He naturally treats the prince more than others. Be more tolerant and loving, what the Empress Dowager said is reasonable.Kangxi bowed his hands solemnly: "Grandson would like to receive the empress dowager's kind training!"

Yinreng had been to the Compassionate Ning Palace once, and he felt that the Empress Dowager was a kind and amiable old man.There is also an old man in the palace who is the empress dowager. Unlike the shrewd and wise empress dowager, she looks a bit dull. She doesn't speak Chinese very well, and mostly speaks Mongolian or Manchu. She has just become an empress not long ago. As soon as Shunzhi died, he did not need any conspiratorial Gongdou to succeed in being promoted to become the empress dowager. During these long years, unlike the empress dowager who had to assist the king to guide the government, the empress dowager only needed to cultivate her morality. It was enough to show her face on festival days to show that the old man was still alive. After a long and comfortable life, the empress dowager became less vigilant, and she was happy when she saw people who didn't speak Chinese to her.

When I saw Yinreng, I naturally loved him to the bottom of my heart.

After Yinreng knew the benefits of the elderly, he loved to go to the Queen Mother of the Second Palace whenever he had time.

The days passed quickly, and it was mid-August in the blink of an eye.This day Kangxi played chess with Yinreng, Kangxi is a chess master, he won three games in a row, Yinreng was not interested, but Kangxi insisted on playing a few more games with him.This old Kang must want to show off his chess skills, Yinreng thought indignantly while thinking about the way out.

He was thinking hard, but Kangxi leisurely talked to a young and handsome guard behind him: "I heard that your house will hold a poetry meeting tomorrow?"

The guard smiled and replied, "Yes, just after Fulton learned poetry, Amma was eager to show off to others."

Kangxi smiled: "Xingde passed away early, and your Ama will inevitably love his blood more." His tone became slightly sad, "After years of dust returning to the dust, since Xingde passed away, I have never tasted it again. A good poem."

Nalan Xingde?Yinfeng didn't want to play chess anymore, his ears were straightened up, his heart of gossip as a woman was burning, he stared at Kangxi with scorching eyes, seeing his sad expression and the loneliness in his words, he really wanted to rush up and ask for clarification , I heard that your old man has an ambiguous relationship with Nalan Rongruo, is it true?Is it true?

Kangxi saw that Yinreng's eyes were bright at the moment, thinking that he wanted to go to the poetry meeting to see and see, he secretly smiled in his heart, coughed lightly, and said majesticly: "Yinreng, you will go to his house with Kui tomorrow , and look at how the literati and scholars of our Qing Dynasty recite poems and compose Fu, and comment on Fengyue."

This means that he can go out of the palace, the unexpected benefits, Yinreng was pleasantly surprised, immediately dropped the chess piece and got up and cupped his hands: "Yes!"

Thinking of going out to play in the palace tomorrow, Yin Reng was in a very cheerful mood, and he told Yuan Mu as he walked: "Go to the stables later and have a look at my hard-earned horse, I will ride it tomorrow .”

"Hey." Yuan Mu happily replied.

Yinfeng glanced at him strangely: "What are you happy about?"

"The master has been depressed these two days, but today he is laughing, and the slave is also happy." Yuan Mu hurriedly replied.Yinfeng smiled and shook his head lightly, noncommittal.

"Master, just now someone from the palace came to report that Wei Xiaozhu sent a personal maid to the East Palace to thank the Crown Prince for visiting the eighth elder brother a few days ago."

Wei Xiaozhu is the biological mother of the eighth elder brother Yinhu. Because of her low status, she was not promoted even after giving birth to a prince, so she has been living in the palace of concubine Hui. At birth, the big brother's mark must be affixed.Yinfeng thought for a while and said, "It's enough for someone to give you a simple gift in return, and keep a respectful distance."

"Whoo."

There were two princesses walking in the palace road ahead. Seeing Yinreng, the four-year-old fifth princess stretched out her arms and ran towards her quickly. Unexpectedly, Yinreng subconsciously caught the jumping body Fifth princess, hug her up. Fifth princess giggled and winked mischievously at him.

Yinfeng couldn't help laughing too, looking behind her, a large group of nuns and nurses ran out of breath, and the two-year-old Sixth Princess was not as fast as her sister, and finally caught up, anxiously Yinrong jumped up and down his legs.Yinfeng took the sixth princess's hand, put the fifth princess down, and scolded with a cold face: "Wen Xian, why are you running? Is there anyone chasing you?"

"It's been a long time since I saw the prince's brother." The fifth princess stood on tiptoe. She was born of the concubine De, and the empress dowager liked her. She always walked sideways in the palace. She was not afraid of the crown prince. girl, so I never reprimanded her.The sixth princess on the side was a little timid. Seeing that her sister was put down, she became quiet. After saluting, she stood aside with downcast eyes, not even daring to raise her eyes.

"I don't know how to run, just walk slowly."

"Brother Prince," the fifth princess rolled her small eyes, and said cleverly, "I heard Er Niang said that you are sick, but you are very happy today. Is there any fun for you?"

"Ahem, am I happy?"

"Yes, the mouth is almost grinning to the ears." The fifth princess said solemnly.

Yinfeng laughed: "You ghostly thing. Well, it's okay to tell you, I'm going to go outside the palace tomorrow."

"Oh," the fifth princess lost all interest in an instant, "what's interesting outside the palace, there is everything in the palace." Xiao Liu on the side hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Yinfeng thought about it, and immediately came up with an idea, she put her hands behind her back and said seriously: "It's fun outside the palace, Yuan Mu, come and tell the princesses what novelty there is outside the palace."

Yuan Mu hurriedly bowed forward and told the two little ancestors, the colorful and lifelike noodles, the soft and sweet cotton candy like clouds, and the people coming and going on the street, and the restaurants from all over the world gathered in one place Yuan Mu's eloquence was good, and the eyes of the two princesses lit up.

"Brother Prince, I'm going too, you can take me with you." The fifth princess stood on tiptoe and tugged at the corner of Yinreng's gown, coquettishly resolutely.Xiao Liu said timidly and softly, "Brother Prince, please take me with you."

"No, Huang Ama allowed me to leave the palace. You don't have Huang Ama's oral order, and the guards at the gate of the palace won't let you go. So go ahead and ask Huang Ama. If you are approved, send someone Come to the East Palace and say, I will wait for you tomorrow, okay?"

The fifth princess and the sixth princess looked at each other, and felt that the words made sense, so they immediately bid farewell to Yinfeng and went to Qianqing Palace.

Yuan Mu patted his forehead: "If the Fifth Princess is entangled, I'm afraid Long Live Lord may have a headache."

Yinfeng smiled, who told Kangxi to show off his chess skills to him all the time, causing him to spend an hour every day after school to think about chess moves, so he lost a lot of sleep time, so he didn't cause Kangxi any trouble, he thought unbalanced.

On the second day, the weather was warm and cool, Yinreng packed up and went outside the Xihua Gate, when he saw the two little princesses dressed as ordinary Manchu girls, he was shocked.

Seeing him, the fifth princess jumped up happily: "Brother Prince, Huang Ama has agreed, let's go together."

Yin Reng suddenly felt a little top-heavy, he turned his head and said to Kui in a low voice: "The people in the poetry meeting are all men, so collisions are inevitable. The two princesses are of high status. If there is a mistake, Huang Ama will feel sorry for her."

Kui Xu glanced at Yinfeng with a strange expression, and seemed to hold back a smile and said: "Today, the front yard of this servant's mansion is a poetry meeting, while the back garden is full of banquets and games for girls from various mansions. It's just right for the two princesses to go. "He raised his voice, "Besides, the emperor ordered his slaves to bring it to the prince. The emperor said, since the prince is so enthusiastic, I can't refute his face, so I agree. You must take good care of the princess. damage."

Fifth Princess and Xiao Liu looked gratefully!Xiantou: "Thanks to the prince's brother, Wen Xian will listen obediently and not cause trouble to the prince's brother. In the update, Kuailiang threw her forehead and jumped twice, and she was on the verge of falling. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot.
