Chapter 2353 Seven Volumes 53 Already Drunk You (Bi)
Wanxi bowed her head and smiled, got up and went to the Kang, and took out a small brocade box from the drawer of the Kang quilt.

He took the brocade box back to Yuqin, and opened the small brass lock in front of Yuqin, revealing a thing carefully wrapped in red silk.

The red silk was unfolded, but there was a piece of old paper that was yellowed and the corners were a little torn.

Seeing familiar eyes, Yuqin couldn't help raising her eyes to stare at Wanxi, "Is this... the one from back then...?"

Wanxi nodded with a smile, carefully wrapped the old paper, put it back into the brocade box, carefully locked the small brass lock, and pushed the whole brocade box in front of Yuqin.

Finally, Wanxi put the small key into Yuqin's palm and closed Yuqin's fingers.

Yuqin couldn't help raising her eyes, staring at Wanxi.

Wanxi nodded, "Let's put it on my sister's side. It's hard to say whether this object will be useful in the future. After all, the chief envoy of Suzhou is still Zhangbao appointed by the emperor at this moment, and there is no peace." Woolen cloth."

"It's just that we have fought with Concubine Xin all these years, and we have suffered a lot from her inside and out, so we have to have a longer memory, and this time we have to be prepared first. We can't ask her to catch us by surprise again, and take advantage of our unpreparedness , so that we only focus on fighting the queen, but she will benefit from it."

Yuqin just nodded, put away the key decisively, and carefully put the brocade box into her cuff.None of them were handed over to Qingguang and the others to keep them on their behalf.

Wanxi also sighed, "If An Ning will never be reinstated, then we won't be able to use this item; if An Ning really has the ability to reinstate her post, and give Concubine Xin a chance to make a comeback, then let her bring her own humiliation. Just once!"

Yuqin also nodded resolutely, "Don't worry, I will keep this item carefully."

Wanxi got up, took Yuqin's hand, and walked to the small Buddhist hall in Dongnuange, the two of them burned a stick of incense in front of the Buddha together.

"When Sister Chun was still alive, I only kept this object, but I didn't want to use it anymore. The grievances and resentments associated with this object are all in the past many years ago. The old people left one by one. , I just save it as a thought.”

"And this year, Sister Chun has already gone, and this object just happened to meet a useful opportunity. Before Sister Chun left, she held my hand several times before the sick bed and said, it's a pity that she is sick and weak, There are many things that I have thought about but I can no longer help me. Then this time I will borrow this object to help us again, and let Sister Chun rest in peace in the spirit of heaven."

Yuqin also prostrated in front of the Buddha, "At this time we are just on guard. After all, whether this object will be useful or not depends on Concubine Xin's own choice. If she insists on trying to get this object, then No wonder we are."

Wanxi turned her eyes, "After all, this object is a memory between Sister Chun and me. I am actually reluctant to let this original copy fall into her hands. But if it is not the original copy, I will definitely not be able to hide it from her, and it will cause her to die. suspect."

Yuqin also nodded, "What you said is true. Her heart is not given for nothing, only the original can make her give up her heart."

Wanxi stretched out her hand to hold Yuqin's hand, "I beg my sister to keep this object well. I hope it will not be useful after all, and then my sister will keep it well for me, don't worry about it again." Too much scum."

Yuqin nodded with a smile, "Don't worry. Elder sister Chun and I are also from the same hometown in Suzhou, and for the sake of the relationship between me and her, I will naturally be safe."
.
Xiyuan, Yingtai.

At that time, the royal family Duke Rusong and others, the Huibu Burke who led the annual class to enter the pilgrimage, and the Huibu County King Huojisi who had stayed in Beijing, and the noble brother Turdu all came to receive the banquet.

As a princess, she naturally doesn't have to salute the ministers of Huibo, but Jiujiu still remembers Wanxi's teaching and goes down to salute the clan princes in person.

The clan that hosted the banquet today was headed by Rusong, Duke Fu and Youzong of the clan's mansion.This Duke Rusong is the fifth grandson of Prince Yu Duoduo.Jiujiu stepped forward to salute, and said "greetings to you".

Ru Song was so frightened that he got up quickly, and knelt down on the ground, "How dare you, my slave. Please give peace to the little master of the Ninth Princess..."

Although this Lord Rusong is the Duke of the clan and auxiliary state, but because his ancestor Dorbo is not only the fifth son of Duoduo, but also the heir of Dorgon, because this time Dorgon and Duoduo's son The name of merits and demerits has not yet been finalized, so Rusong has to be more cautious in everything because he shoulders the burden of these two ancestors.

Jiujiu smiled sweetly, "Please get up quickly. If Huang Ama and Erniang know that you keep kneeling for me, they will definitely punish me!"

Ru Song also hurriedly said, "The slave also invites the ninth princess to replace the slave, and pays respects to the noble concubine and the master."

Jiujiu nodded cheerfully, "My mother also said, I wish you well."

Just like that, Jiujiu saluted the clans present one by one.It's just that she is young after all, and she can't tell who is the elder and who is the junior. She just calls "you old" when she sees a tall and bearded person. Some of the clan princes are scared to kneel down in a hurry, and some of the younger generations just lie on the ground. Kowtow to the ground.

Fortunately, Ru Song is also the right clan member of the clan mansion, in charge of clan affairs, and knows the seniority in the clan best, so he accompanied Jiujiu to explain each one clearly.

But even so, Jiujiu couldn't remember, let alone tell the seniority of the other three generations, they always poured a glass of "wine" one by one with a smile on their faces.All the princes and princes of the clan quickly drank it, Jiujiu still stared at him, and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, are you drunk?"
.
Jiujiu's words, all the clans were a little confused, and they all looked at Rusong.

Ru Song didn't understand what was going on, so he was a little at a loss.

Originally, the nobleman didn't want to get close to the Qing clan, but when he came to Yingtai, he just sat behind the curtain far away.But now seeing such a situation, he had no choice but to get up, covered his face with the veil on the hood, and ran to Jiujiu himself.

All the princes and princes of the Qing clan saw that the nobles came down in person, apart from being surprised and curious, they all hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects.

Hugging Jiujiu with the nobleman, regardless of the previous estrangement, he winked at the princes of the clan.

Outside the veil with the nobleman, although only a pair of eyes are exposed, but these eyes are deep and beautiful, even just a wink can make people understand more clearly.Therefore, Na Rusong vaguely understood something, and then tentatively said, "...Slave, are you drunk?"

He nobleman quickly nodded towards Rusong.

Ru Song was a little confused, but still quickly winked at all the clansmen, "Drunk, all of us are drunk, aren't we?"

Sure enough, all the clan members felt that their heads were a little confused. Although they didn't drink "wine" to get drunk, but this kind of confusion was similar to being drunk.So everyone hurriedly said, "Drunk, the slave is drunk."

Jiujiu fell into Heguiren's arms in satisfaction, wrapped his arms around Heguiren's neck and said contentedly, "Look, Madam He, what we steamed is indeed wine!"

He nobleman held back his laughter, and smiled and winked at Rusong and the clan.

When the emperor walked into Yingtai, he saw exactly such a scene.

Even the emperor couldn't help but stop and raise his eyebrows—I thought that He Guiren must be very alienated from the Aixinjueluo family's clan; How much estrangement should there be?

But the emperor never expected that not only came out of the curtain with the nobleman, but even got along with the clan members very happily!
Because of the performance of the nobleman, a row of returning princes sitting opposite finally smiled.

The emperor was a little puzzled, but he was more delighted, so he came forward with a big smile, and stood in front of the nobleman, "Mailike, what are you saying to the clan, so happy?"

He and the nobleman didn't expect the emperor to come in at this juncture, so he was a little embarrassed, bowed his knees, but still said, "...not a concubine, but Jiujiu. Jiujiu toasted the clansmen, and the clansmen said drunk."

The emperor couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard it, "Oh? Wine? Drunk?"

After all, Jiujiu is only two years old, how did he come into contact with alcohol?The nobleman also knew what the emperor was thinking, so he had no choice but to wink at the emperor.

The emperor understood a little bit, but he laughed, "Since there is a good wine that you can drink immediately, chirp, why don't you give Huang Ama a bowl too?"

Jiujiu was naturally happy, so she slipped from Heguiren's arms, and Dengdeng ran over to use her toy-sized jug, and also gave the emperor a cup.

The emperor took it and drank it, and then he fixed his eyes tightly on the nobleman, with an expression on the verge of laughing.

The nobleman understood what the emperor meant, so she immediately blinked at the emperor again, and her cheeks were already flushed with embarrassment.

——If this is the case, this scene falls in the eyes of the Huibu princes, and all they see are the emperor and their princess, who look at each other and smile affectionately, looking like they are in agreement.
.
The emperor held Jiujiu's small wine cup, which was not much bigger than the lid of his thumb, laughed and walked back to the throne to sit down. Then he asked the eunuch serving food to fill up the small wine cup again, and held it up to share with the clan and princes of the Ministry of Hui. toast.

He and the nobleman also walked back to sit behind the bamboo curtain next to the throne with Jiujiu in their arms.

After all, Jiujiu was young, and he yawned a little after playing a game of pouring alcohol.He and the nobleman handed her over to Gu Li, who is next in line.

Gu Li and Lai Li, who are under the noble position, are both women specially selected by the emperor from Huiren Zuo Ling; naturally, they are more considerate than the two Mongolian official women who served her before.

Jiujiu followed Guli away, and he could still chirp and goog about Huibu all the way, and when he passed by the seat of the prince of Huibu, someone heard him.Those Huibu princes couldn't help but stare at Princess Nine in surprise, their eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

The emperor also noticed it, and looked back at the nobleman with a smile on his face, "I am pleasantly surprised by how well you did today."

The nobleman hurriedly lowered his eyes, and said softly, "The emperor misunderstood, it's all thanks to Jiujiu, and it's the virtue of the noble concubine and empress."

The emperor smiled, turned his head, his eyes sparkled.

In front of the throne, headed by Huo Jisi, the king of Huibu County, all the princes of Huibu had already stood up and formally entered the wine rank to the emperor... The emperor took it and threw it all away!

After sitting down again, the emperor asked with a smile, "Jiujiu just said... why?"

The nobleman also nodded and chuckled, "Jiujiu has a good nose, and I like to steam flowers and make dew together with my concubine. I once steamed the begonias of Yongshou Palace with the concubine Ling to make toilet wine. Jiujiu remembered it and I also want to steam wine from flowers myself."

"Because she didn't understand that the wine in the flower dew wine actually came from the grain, she just thought it was steamed from the flowers; and the concubine naturally didn't allow her to touch the wine, so she just smeared the wine on the outside of the wine cup every time. , but only put floral dew in the wine cup, hiding it from her nose, and would not let her really touch the wine. She suspected fraud in her heart, but she couldn't explain it, so she caught someone and poured wine, wanting to see Others are not drunk..."

The emperor immediately burst out laughing.

Seeing the emperor and the nobles whispering intimately, the emperor was so happy, the entire clan and princes of the Hui tribe toasted frequently, and the whole Yingtai was full of wine and chatter.
.
Gu Li took Jiujiu to the apse, intending to coax her to sleep for a while.

But a few "little mosquitoes" came, buzzing and buzzing to lure Jiujiu's soul up, not to mention sleeping, they simply jumped off the kang, and rushed over with joyful shouts.

It turned out that there were three little elder brothers standing at the gate of the hall.

One of them is Lawang; the other is Fukang'an.

Three of them... Jiujiu didn't recognize them, I had never seen them before.

Jiujiu first grabbed Lawang's hand affectionately and asked, "Brother Lawang, why are you here? Did you play truant?"

Lawang lowered his head and stared at the little sister with a smile, but before he could speak, Fukang'an snatched it up first, "Who played truant, you bad chirp, what nonsense are you talking about? Let me tell you, today It's the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and from tomorrow onwards, all ministries will be sealed off, and the masters will naturally give us a holiday!"

Lawang also explained with a smile, "Today is the last day of the year, the masters are kind enough to allow us to leave early."

Lawang pointed to the side of the main hall, "At the banquet today, relatives from my family also came, so the emperor allowed me to come to Yingtai to meet."

Fukangan hugged his arms, "I came with Lawang. I didn't say I had to come, but he insisted on pulling me along..."

Lawang stared at Fukang and smiled helplessly.

Don't think Jiujiu is small, but the little girl is so smart, so she covered her mouth and laughed, "Brother Bao said again! You must be curious and want to take a peek!"

Lawang and Fukang'an have been getting along for these years, and they have long been accustomed to such a way of getting along like the second general Humha, so the two talked very lively.This made the little elder brother next to him look even more demure and elegant, as light as an orchid.

Jiujiu couldn't help but glance at him.

Only then did Lawang come back to his senses, and quickly gave the little elder brother a hand, "This is the little master of the Nine Princesses, Zalan, please greet the little master."

The little elder brother was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, and stepped forward to salute.

The color was not bright at all, but for some reason, Jiujiu felt that color was suddenly clear and shining, as if seeing the sky covered with bright and clear moonlight, the stars and the moon were shining, just to color the deep and vast blue.

Jiujiu thought, maybe it's because his face was as clear as moonlight, so he illuminated the clothes?

It wasn't until several years later that Jiujiu knew that the other name for that color was "Longtouyue".Looking back at this moment, she realized that the perception at this moment was exactly "Young Master Ruyue".
.
Jiujiu hurriedly clapped his hands and laughed, "Little brother, get up!"

Lawang smiled and tweeted, "This is the son of Mr. Zhaohui, the first-class dancer and master of the royal family. He comes from the Zhenghuang Banner Manchuria, and belongs to the mother's family of Empress Xiao Gongren (De Concubine) People. He is four years older than you and is the same age as me, so he and Qilin Bao are studying together in the upper study."

Jiujiu also nodded with a smile, "Oh, you are a descendant of the old lady Huang's family! You are mine..." Jiujiu met a large group of clan princes today, and Rusong taught many generations. At a loss for words, he wrung his fingers and began to count, "It's mine..."

Although the three elder brothers are not very old, they are all schoolgoers anyway.The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.

Fukangan joked with his arms in his arms, "Little Jiujiu, are you confused? Please, please, I will teach you."

Jiujiu made a face at Fukang'an, "No way!"

Because Jiu Fujin still had some thoughts about the relationship between Fu Kang'an and Jiu Gongzhu, and Fu Kang'an was a monkey spirit, so he vaguely sensed his mother's thoughts, so he deliberately opposed Jiu Jiu on a daily basis.Jiujiu was four years younger than him, so naturally he was at a disadvantage, so since Jiujiu could talk, the two always bickered.

Although Lawang wanted to help, he was a Mongolian after all, and he didn't know much about the Wuya family, so he couldn't tell Zalantai's seniority.

After all, Zha Lantai stepped forward and lightly pressed Jiujiu's finger back, "Don't forget, I am different from those clan princes, you can't use that to calculate."

The Wuya clan is a descendant, which is a foreign relative, which is naturally separate from the clan's calculations.

Zalantai thought for a while, "We may be cousins."

Jiujiu was happy now, and hurriedly raised his head and said, "Thank you, little brother!"

Fukang'an was a little dissatisfied, and whispered to Zha Lantai, "Good boy, tear me down~"

Zha Lantai smiled and said lightly, "Qilinbao has never been a stingy person, let alone a person who bullies little girls."

Fukang'an curled his lips and had to accept it. "You're right, but Jiujiu, what's the matter with you, why do you call him little brother? Shouldn't you be called 'Brother Zha'?"

Fukang'an said and winked at Lawang and smiled, "Does it sound like a hedgehog?"

Jiujiu rolled his eyes at Fukang'an unceremoniously, "I don't call you that. I just call you little brother! I'll change my name from tomorrow and call you 'Brother Zhaodi'!"

Fukang'an immediately glared, "Oh, you little bastard, what's wrong with you?"

Jiujiu flattened his mouth, "...I'll go back and tell my sister, you bullied me~"

Fukangan suddenly softened, and hurried forward to hug Jiujiu, "Oh my good princess, I was wrong, I will compensate you, okay?"

Lawang smiled helplessly, but Zalantai was puzzled, staring at the two hugging each other for a moment.

Lawang hurriedly explained to Zalantai, "Zhalan, did you scare you? Because Qilin Baodu and I grew up in the inner court since we were two years old, and we are like brothers and sisters with the nine princesses."

Zha Lantai nodded with a smile, "I see. I envy you two."
.
Jiujiu was so happy to play in Yingtai that day, and when he returned to Yongshou Palace, he hugged Wanxi and talked endlessly.

Looking at the appearance of my daughter, Wanxi, who has been worried for a whole day, is relieved now, and nods and smiles with the nobleman.

Jiujiu then turned the focus to the little brother he met, and folded Wanxi's arms and said, "I also drank alcohol for brother Lawang, brother Bao and little brother. I just didn't expect that brother Lawang Brother Hebao's drinking capacity is actually better than those grown-ups! Both of them are not even drunk!"

Wanxi almost burst out laughing, knowing that the two children were telling the truth.

Jiujiu recalled the situation at that time, and said angrily, "I poured them wine and asked them if they were drunk. Brother Bao actually pinched my waist and nodded my forehead and said, 'You are drunk!" Di Le, it seems that I'm not drunk either."

Wanxi laughed, coaxing and tweeting, "Your Brother Lawang is a little Mongolian guy, and Mongolians can drink well; as for your brother Bao, well, he is naughty, and he probably stole alcohol since he was a child. That's how you drink too."

Jiujiu felt that he could believe it, so he nodded, "Only the little brother said...he was drunk."

Wanxi couldn't help raising her eyes and looking at He Guiren again, "Little brother?"

He Guiren was not in the apse at that moment, and the one serving Jiujiu was an official woman from Huibu, and she couldn't understand what Jiujiu and the others were talking about, so Heguiren could only shake his head apologetically.

Jiujiu became anxious, and shook Wanxi's hand vigorously, "It's the little brother! Hey, he said I can be called cousin!"

Those who dare to say that they are cousins ​​with the royal family are naturally the mother's family of the queens of all dynasties.Wanxi's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly turned her head to look at Yurui.

If it is explained by Queen Dan, this meeting is Nala's mother's family, the empress dowager's mother's family.Needless to say, Nala's family, Niu Hulu's family also has a nobleman from Lan, so if it is the family of these two mothers, Wanxi is a little worried.

Yurui understood, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in a low voice, "The emperor is giving a banquet to the clan and the princes of Huibu today. I think it has nothing to do with the empress's mother's family or the empress dowager's mother's family."

Wanxi patted Yurui's hand appreciatively, and said softly, "I understand. The one who has something to do with Huibu is naturally Lord Zhaohui. Lord Zhaohui is also from Queen Dan Chan, but our cousin."

Jiujiu murmured for a while, and suddenly the sunny day turned cloudy, holding Wanxi's arm and asking, "...But, why do I feel that my little brother is a little unhappy today?"

Wanxi thought that the child might be Zhaohui's nephew, so she understood why.

Yin Zhaohui is the head coach of the Pinghui Department of the imperial court.Before the two armies fought, they naturally killed many Muslims.Therefore, if the princes and princes who gave the banquet today saw Zhao Hui's nephew, they would inevitably turn their faces coldly.

It's just that it's inconvenient for Jiujiu, who is only two and a half years old, to explain it clearly, so he said slowly, "...Ernie thinks, that little brother may not be unhappy. Why did Jiujiu forget? You got him drunk."

"People who are drunk will naturally become intoxicated."

Jiujiu thought for a while, then clapped his hands and laughed, "Yes, I got him drunk! He's confused!"

She hugged Wanxi and sighed contentedly, "That wine is so sweet!"

(Aren’t you sweet? Happy weekend~)
