The struggle of the eight blessings of rebirth

Chapter 139 Rethinking ([-])

A few days later, on the day of the Empress Dowager's Longevity, Minzhi carried the soft sedan into the palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday. As soon as she arrived at the gate of the Shouning Palace, she was shocked by the decoration of the Shouning Palace today. The original vermilion palace walls were covered. One layer of canvas, the canvas is undoubtedly covered with peonies and butterflies of various colors. Every flower and every butterfly is different. When combined together, it is really full of flowers and joy.

In front of the gate of the main hall, many princes and ladies were watching, discussing, and looking for the works of their children. A certain wife was very proud: "The flower over there is so positive in color and beautiful in shape. At first glance, it is my aunt's work." Drawn." The other was not convinced: "Your aunt? That doll is only a little over five years old, and you have the nerve to show it off. You think I don't know that the name on the wall over there was given by you temporarily, Aru Na, you're so ridiculous!" "Hmph, how is your family's? Is it yours? Would you like to give birth to me?"

Minzhi shook her head: Yinzhen, you like to make a big splash in everything you do. I originally thought about doing creative graffiti with only the children of our family, but you used canvas to surround the entire wall of Shouning Palace!However, the effect seemed to be pretty good. Seeing those women competing to show off their daughters, she chose to sideways to avoid them.

However, how could the ladies let her go on this occasion?The sharp-eyed women saw her standing by the painted wall early in the morning, and came up to say hello: "Isn't this Princess Lianjun? I heard that you have been ill for a long time." Minzhi lowered her eyes: "Yes, the wind in the grassland is still strong It’s a little colder, and it’s okay now.” “I’ve heard that this canvas and this paint were made by barbarian painters in your village, those yellow-haired ghosts, green eyes, bloody It’s a mouthful. I heard it’s scary! How dare you take them in!”

Minzhi vomited blood: "Madam, you haven't seen them before. There are many painters in the Huang'ama Academy of Painting who are not of my Daqing race. I think they are all pleasing to the eye. If there are really attractive people, wouldn't they be so beautiful?" Scaring the nobles of the inner court?" Minzhi was very puzzled by calling foreigners into barbarians, she remembered that they were called foreigners all the time, could it be that the word of mouth was wrong?But the Yi people clearly have a derogatory meaning in it, which is a personal attack.

Chatting with them, Minzhi caught a glimpse of Tong Xinlan's figure in the crowd. It's been a long time since she saw her. Her cousin Xin refused to accept her domineering appearance and hid in the crowd. Seeing Minzhi's gaze, she hurriedly avoided it.But Minzhi walked over and took the initiative to call her: "Cousin? Mrs. Ethan?" Tong Xinlan visibly trembled: "You, Princess Lianjun is auspicious..."

Minzhi was taken aback: "Cousin?" Tong Xinlan timidly said: "No, I dare not, the servant has nothing to do, please forgive me!" After saying that, she bowed: "The servant retreated, and then left in a hurry.

"Huh? What's the matter with her?" Minzhi muttered.At that time, the eunuch in charge of the Shouning Palace shouted: "Under the order of the Empress Dowager, the princess of Xuanlian County will see you!" Everyone's eyes were all focused on her, and those who didn't come up to strike up a conversation just now also showed envy and hatred All kinds of looks.She calmed herself down and raised a smile. It was the bank calling, which meant it was her turn to pay her birthday greetings. She stroked her sleeves and took a few steps forward: "Leadership."

The little eunuch then bowed his head and bowed: "Princess Lianjun, please!" Minzhi stepped into the main hall, as magnificent as imagined, on the seats on both sides, a group of concubines headed by the crown prince had already sat on it, and the queen mother was dressed in auspicious clothes Sitting, seeing Minzhi come in with a smile.Stepping forward, he respectfully paid respects and paid homage: "Guo Luoluo pays homage to the empress dowager Jin'an, and the emperor's mother has a long life." The empress dowager stretched out her hand: "Get up, the birthday gift is very good, and sit down."

Min Zhi got up and took the seat where the seventh Fujin would start. The ninth Fujin was about to give birth, and the Empress Dowager ordered her to be exempted from entering the palace, so the tenth Fujin, the twelfth Fujin, and the fourteenth Fujin came forward to pay their respects.But those wives of princes and dukes outside could only prostrate themselves outside the palace, and had no right to receive the Queen Mother in person.

The birthday ceremony was over, and the Queen Mother held a banquet. The female relatives sat down in order. The Crown Princess held a cup to toast the Queen Mother on behalf of the sisters-in-law. It is necessary to accept that the emperor brings his grandchildren and great-grandchildren to the birthday ceremony in the square of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and also to participate in the Eight Banners family banquet, and to watch performances.It is impossible for an old lady not to raise her spirits.

Following the Empress Dowager to leave the table was the Crown Princess, who was an old patient of the sister-in-law group, and everyone was used to her being indifferent.What Minzhi thought was that Xiaojiu gave the children's painting to the queen mother, so what did the emperor give?Moreover, you made such a big fuss.In case Kangxi thinks that you are inferior to the gift he prepared, what will you do?
Just as I was thinking about it, someone on the table said: "The emperor's mother lives forever every year. We have seen this ceremony a lot, but this year it opened our eyes. Our master ordered me to find Princesses to paint, but it was this General purpose." Minzhi looked up, and the person who spoke was Zhijun Wang who continued the Fujin Wang family, Minzhi lowered her eyes and remained silent, only looking at the snow-white silver carp meat on the plate.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Wang changed the subject, the flames ignited: "Eighth brother and sister, you gave this idea, right? Ninth brother and sister are busy with confinement, and ninth brother is a man, how could he come up with such a brilliant idea?" Sanfujin, who was sitting beside her, raised her eyebrows together: "That's right, I used to envy her twins, but now I even bring my daughter along with her. Who can't see that their family has the most paintings..."

Minzhi lowered her head to pick at the fishbone, and said nothing, this kind of verbal battle is meaningless at all, the two on the opposite side are too low in rank, look at Sifujin over here, her teeth are clenched tightly, but she didn't say a single unnecessary word. Don't squint, just eat.That's right, what's the point of being envious of other people's children in groups, and it's not just a few words of irony that they have children in groups when they go home.Besides, your two families are not bad. Sanfujin has a pair of sons and daughters, and they are the champions in their own family. Although the Wang family is a latecomer, they gave birth to an elder brother early. What's so unbalanced?

Minzhi got up and took a large piece of fish and put it on the plate of the ten Fujins: "My brothers and sisters are used to barbecue, but they don't know that the stewed ones have a special flavor!" You guys are recovering from a serious illness, and you carried your guns with your sticks early in the morning.

But it looked like Minzhi didn't take them seriously at all, instead she was busy helping Shifu Jin prepare vegetables, saying that this was delicious and that was also good.

There is some doubt in my heart, according to the temper of the eighth younger siblings before, there is one thing that I have to say, although the tone is gentle and gentle, but it is the most suitable way to describe her.It is said that she is someone who dares to contradict Huang Ama.Why are you so soft today?
The two Minzhi on the other side treated them like air, lost face immediately, looked at each other, and shut their mouths resentfully.Minzhi saw the expressions of the two of them. Seeing that they shut up, she said softly: "My sister-in-law has the most daughters in her family, and she must be the one who shows her face on the canvas this time. There is only Hanyin on the left and right of our house." Dumiao, even if one person draws five pictures, it is still not as good as one picture per person in sister-in-law's house, sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

Just as Wang ate a ball, she choked on Minzhi's words. It took her a long time to come to her senses, how many daughters does she have?There are indeed many, but does it have a dime relationship with her?It was all the mess left to her by her ex, and she really didn't take them seriously.

When Minzhi mentioned this, Wang's face turned slightly red, and she turned her eyes away and said nothing.San Fujin heard it too, yes, how can I compare with her, her family has only two sons and one daughter, the two sons were taken away by Huang Ama, and there is only one daughter left, can she come up with such a way to show off?But who else would it be if it wasn't her?
The table finally became quiet, and Minzhi glanced sideways at the silent Sifujin. It seemed that there was only one Gege in her family. I wonder if the ninth brother asked her daughter to draw?

Her question was resolved when she went to Zhongcui Palace after the banquet.The Wang family always had trouble with her, but Concubine Hui really cared for Yinhu. Although she was annoyed by what Kangxi had agreed to, she was an elder after all. Still have to be peaceful.

No, after Minzhi came, Concubine Yi came with eighteen frames and ten blessings in a while, and when she saw Minzhi, her eyebrows and eyes curved with joy: "Old daughter-in-law, Yinzhen told me that your idea is really good." , you don't know, the first time Huang Mama saw the Shouning Palace dressed up like this, she was so happy, she walked around the main hall twice and said she didn't see enough!"

Eighteen Gege hugged the cat and came forward to greet him, and said happily: "I also painted this time. I thought how monotonous a flower is, but I didn't expect Brother Jiu to put everyone's paintings together. It's really beautiful. What!" Hearing what she said, Minzhi realized that this birthday gift was really big, the few unmarried Ge Ge in the palace had all acted, and Huang Ama actually acquiesced?But in this way, the old man should not be angry, right?
Thinking this way, Concubine Liang came, and Minzhi greeted her, she hugged her: "Caixuan, you haven't entered the palace for a long time, are you feeling better?" Minzhi's heart warmed, and she smiled sweetly: "Er Mother, I'm fine, I'm sorry, I made Er Niang worry." Seeing her smile, Concubine Liang patted her hand: "You always make people worry."

This scene was originally full of warmth, and Minzhi felt that everyone was smiling at her, and the smiles were full of kindness.I knew they were kind to me before, but I never took this kindness into my heart.Now, seeing everyone in the room smiling and talking, she felt that even Mrs. Wang's jealous eyes had become kinder.Just when I was feeling beautiful in my heart, the voice of the eunuch announcing came from outside: "The emperor is here!"

Suddenly, the good mood dissipated, Kangxi came, and he came again.Minzhi bent her mouth and followed behind the three empresses, ready to welcome his old man.
