Leisurely Four Fortunes

Chapter 123

The princess stretched her neck, looking a little surprised.Opening her mouth seemed to be thinking about the etiquette of the princess, so she didn't call out.

Anyway, from Xiaoyi's point of view, she perfectly played the second sister-in-law who didn't know anything and was very distressed by the situation.Her instantly tense back also showed everyone how worried she was at the moment.

If she hadn't experienced 50 years of strife in the palace, Xiaoyi would definitely be fooled by her.But now she has never seen any means, and the princess's morality is not enough to see.

While her expression was impeccable, it was a little too much.Hongchen was not her own, so how could she be so worried.

These thoughts were only in Xiaoyi's mind for a moment, and soon she felt a little regretful.She was the one who took care of it, and she knew that there might be something wrong with the things in the Zhijun Palace, but she kept urging no one to deal with it.Now that the situation is like this, she has to find a way to minimize the loss in this matter.

At the very least, no one can say anything about Hongchen!

"How can this be good?"

Before Xiaoyi could react, the princess had already opened her mouth with some sadness.She walked in and supported Xiaoyi, comforting her softly.

"Hongchen is Huang Ama's grandson, blessed with the spirit of a real dragon, he will surely be prosperous and blessed."

The princess wanted to say something, but Xiaoyi's eyes lit up.That's right, Emma Huang.Who dares to say anything under the banner of Huang Ama.

Raising her voice slightly, the corners of her lips were pursed in a gesture of infinite gratitude: "Thank you for your concern, princess, what you said is reasonable: with Emperor Ama's protection, and the prince here, evil spirits will definitely not be able to get in."

Although the voice is not high, it can ensure that everyone can hear it.Taking advantage of this moment, the crown prince and elder brother also came over, while the fourth master signaled the eunuch to take a look forward.

The small broken gold characters appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The fourth master's face was ashen, while the elder brother was in disbelief.

"This……."

After several years of fighting in the south, the elder brother has matured day by day.Especially in the area of ​​Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are outstanding people and many literati, and most of the officials stationed are knowledgeable people.

Under the influence of day and night, he finally no longer acted recklessly like in his previous life, but learned to act in a roundabout way.

After giving Zhang Jiashi a glance, he immediately took out another golden lock from his sleeve.

"The mansion made a mistake with the gift. I got it by accident when I was fighting in the south. I heard that this longevity lock, consecrated by the master of Shaolin Temple, will surely guarantee Hongchen's nephew a long life."

Fourth Master's expression changed, Xiaoyi grabbed his sleeve from behind, and smiled kindly at Eldest Brother.

"Brother Lao Lao."

The fourth master also cupped his hands slightly: "Brother is paying attention."

Xiaoyi summoned a drum instrument and ordered her to put the lock on the tray into a brocade box and return it to Da Fujin.

**
The storm was successfully resolved, and the full moon banquet continued.The fourth master rewarded the eunuch who passed the decree generously, and ordered the rest of the dishes to be brought up.

Xiaoyi looked at the table of delicious dishes in front of her. It must have taken a lot of effort for Fourth Master to get so many seasonal vegetables in the middle of winter.

"We are lucky."

The princess smiled and said, "Everyone, use some."

The dinner was quite calm, taking advantage of the gap between breastfeeding Hongchen, Xiaoyi called the drum in.

"what happened?"

Guse handed over a handkerchief: "Usually, golden locks are used to fasten the characters on them tightly. But the gift from Zhijun Prince's Mansion is to polish the unevenness of the handwriting on the ground, and then sprinkle it with water to take advantage of the weather. Frozen in severe cold."

Hearing this, Xiaoyi understood that the place where the tray was placed was closer to the incense burner, and there was a brazier next to it.After some grilling, the ice was scratched off, and the water was completely evaporated.When a servant passes by and touches it slightly, the handwriting will naturally fall off.

"That word is also frozen?"

"Yes, where the strokes stick together, you can't really see it unless you look carefully. There seems to be some paste mixed in the water, leaving a little taste on the veil."

Xiaoyi patted her son, then sneered.The prince has made up his mind, will fourth master and him agree to not sue?
But has he ever thought that it was a full moon gift for the fourth master's second son.It's unlucky for a child to smash it without washing for three full moons.Although fame has a greater impact on her daughter, an unlucky elder brother will not have a good life in the future.

If it wasn't for the quick reaction of the elder brother, she would have revealed all the truth.Does the prince think he is the emperor? The king and ministers have to die, and it doesn't matter if she lives or suffers.But the crown prince is just an unstable prince.

"Xiaoyi..."

Fourth master came in blushing, he had to drink a few more glasses on this occasion.Taking advantage of Xiaojie's spare time, he hurried over to comfort Xiaoyi.

"Master, just now, also found a pair of gold bracelets with different designs and colors."

Su Peisheng came over and handed over a brocade box.Xiaoyi opened it, and sure enough, she saw two bracelets, one with a peach carved on it, and the other with a similar shape, but if you carefully identify it, you can still see some differences.

Weighing the bracelet, she felt a little better, at least fourth master's attitude was there.Between the prince and the baby, he chose his own child without hesitation.

"Grandpa, now shall we?"

Xiaoyi knows that although she is proficient in the affairs of the back house, she has no talent for the affairs of the previous dynasty.This matter is very involved, it is better to listen to fourth master's opinion.

"Huang Ama is a wise gentleman, we should not interfere in this matter. Don't worry, Xiaoyi, the crown princess's son will be arrested after the next year, and the Lord will get it back for you when the time comes."

Hearing what he said, Xiaoyi felt even more relieved, but she was a little hesitant in holding Hongchen.

"That little Gege is innocent after all."

"Don't worry, how can I care about it like a little doll? Whoever does it, of course, will bear it."

"That's Yiye's. It's getting late, so I'd better go out quickly."

After Xiaoyi finished speaking, she lowered her head and patted the child, and came over to wipe his mouth after he burped.It's just that the shadow beside her hasn't dissipated yet. When she looked up, she saw Fourth Master still standing where she was, with his eyes slightly downcast staring at the place where she was breastfeeding.

What's wrong with this man?Although the fourth master in her memory was occasionally enthusiastic at night, Xiaoyi was a little puzzled, so she hurriedly pulled down her clothes and tidied them up.

Then she clearly saw fourth master's Adam's apple move, but his expression was serious: "It's cold outside, you and Hongchen should dress warmly."

"The concubine knows it, and the master should also pay attention."

Sure enough, Fourth Master's face cleared up again, and he walked out briskly.After another cup of tea, she felt that the time was almost up, Xiaoyi looked in the mirror to tidy herself up, and went out again.

**
"These three children have really worked hard for you."

Because it was Hongchen's full moon, Xiaoyi took Tingfang's place and sat on the left side of the princess.

At this moment, she was saying with some pity, Xiaoyi could feel that her feelings were real.She also understands the feelings of the Crown Princess. In the view of Manchurians, breastfeeding is an act that is particularly harmful to the human body.

Therefore, most of the children of the Manchus were breastfed by wet nurses from birth.Generally, until the age of three, one nanny is not enough, and four nanny should take turns.

It has evolved from generation to generation, and now breastfeeding has become a job for servants, which has always been despised by noble ladies of the Eight Banners.

At the beginning, the Guerjia family also had concerns in this regard, fearing that it would harm her body and be said by the royal family.But Honghui didn't need other people's milk, and Xiaoyi easily passed her own test.There is nothing to be ashamed of feeding your own children.

And watching this child grow up little by little from her milk is a kind of indescribable happiness.

So now she has been insisting, but the words of the crown princess now make her not know how to answer.

"It's okay, as long as Hongchen is well, thank you Crown Princess for your concern."

"What kind of concubine is it called, just call it the second sister-in-law. By the way, at Yuqing Palace, the prince's nanny has a prescription for maintenance. I ordered the imperial doctor to see it. It is indeed good for the body. You can use it first." .”

Xiaoyi was a little embarrassed, the nurse's prescriptions were usually for promoting lactation.And to promote lactation, you must use oily and greasy things to eat up your body all the time.

"Thank you for your compassion."

The smile on Xiaoyi's face is about to be unstoppable, isn't the Crown Princess' concern too much?
In fact, from the perspective of the princess, she can understand.It's nothing more than a bit of contempt in pity, and by the way, give Fang Zi a good time.But she handled it, so can she not know what the prescription is?

"The fourth younger siblings are in really good shape, it doesn't look like they just gave birth."

Chao Tingfang cast a grateful look, and sure enough, the sisters who grew up together understood her.Sure enough, the Crown Princess looked stiff, and Xiaoyi felt better.

"Maybe it's because of breastfeeding, so she lost weight faster. But the third sister-in-law is not bad now. She came out after giving birth to Hongqing, whoever sees you doesn't say she's pretty."

Shuying also joined in, and the three flattered each other.Women like to be praised by others, and praised each other, Xiaoyi's mood that was a little hazy due to the longevity lock finally cleared up.

Da Fujin and the Crown Princess beside him were not sunny anymore, and the Crown Princess looked a little ugly.But she felt ashamed, and it was still inconvenient to attack.Looking at the sister-in-law at the side, and then thinking of the master's instructions, she made up her mind.

"This is Da Gege, come to Second Aunt."

The princess stood up and greeted Da Gege who was brought by the elder brother.Da Gege couldn't get off the tiger, glanced at Ama, and walked over slowly.

"Although the jewelry left by the former sister-in-law is exquisite, it is better for girls to wear it lively. Look at this, it must look good."

Xiaoyi had mixed feelings in her heart, the princess did not intend to give up today's opportunity.Letting her speak out does not mean that she failed Da Fujin's entrustment before her death, but Hongchen's full moon banquet will be noisy again.

Forget it, there was a fuss on the left and right.As long as she doesn't go too far, she can be the four sons and one daughter left by poor Da Fujin.

The movement made by the crown princess was not small, at least the elder brothers who were closest to this table saw it.The elder brother was in a bad mood at first, drinking cups of stuffy wine.Seeing what the Crown Princess said now, with sharp eyes, he finally saw the bracelet on his daughter's wrist.

It was indeed left by Fujin during his lifetime. At that time, he witnessed her putting each piece into the jewelry box and handing them over to his sensible eldest daughter.

It was his negligence as an Ama.For a moment, he squeezed the wine glass tightly to suppress his anger.Er Niang also said that Zhang Jiashi is a good person, it seems that it is just a good face.Not in the capital all year round, this mansion should take care of it.
