The Queen of Qing Dynasty is beautiful and kind

Chapter 47 Bullying
Before midnight, the snow outside the window had grown heavier.

There are some fireworks faintly visible in the distance. Although the sound can't be heard, it's still very beautiful just looking at it from such a distance.

When Lu Qinghuan was a child, he liked Chinese New Year the most.

Especially when fireworks were not under control, she liked to watch them.

On New Year's Eve, I just sat in the yard and watched the fireworks above my head, and I could watch them for a long time.

"It's so beautiful." Yaqi also whispered in Gu Qinghuan's ear.

This year, because of the passing of Empress Xiaoyi, the palace is not allowed to set off these.It was a rare bit of silence.

"En." Gu Qinghuan responded lightly, and quietly pointed to the two people above.

Aunt Yuehua was already very sleepy and she was supporting her head.

Yinzhen didn't have any expression on his face, and occasionally took a sip of tea and didn't eat any snacks.

Did he drink so much tea that he didn't have to go to the toilet?

After such an unreliable thought suddenly flashed through Gu Qinghuan's head, he looked at Yinzhen in a strange way.

Yinzhen was rubbing the rim of his teacup and was about to yawn.Coincidentally, I noticed the gaze of the little palace lady not far away.

What does she see herself doing?
Yinzhen hurriedly restrained himself from yawning, put down his teacup instead, and glanced in Gu Qinghuan's direction.

Looking at each other, Gu Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat.

It's over, it's been discovered.

Gu Qinghuan hastily coughed lightly, then looked away.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't mean to think you're weird.

"..." Yinzhen was silent for a while, always feeling that when Gu Qinghuan looked away, there seemed to be a flash of disgust.

It will be here soon.

After eating and drinking, Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi leaned together, and the two of them watched the fireworks outside the window.

Looking at it, the fireworks in front of my eyes gradually blurred, and my eyelids were so heavy that I fell asleep.

Yinzhen looked at the sleepy people in the room, couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

Speaking of it, there is really nothing good about the custom of keeping the year old.

When Huang Erniang was still there, the two of them and Aunt Yuehua just chatted and ate something together.

just now…

Yinzhen shifted his gaze to the little palace lady who was pecking rice not far away.

Seeing such an interesting little maid, he seemed to be in a much better mood.

A moment later, the bell rang.

The prelude to the 29th year of Kangxi began at this moment.

"Ok?"

Accompanied by the ringing of the bell, there were some joyful cheers.Those voices were far away, as if they came from outside the palace.Immediately afterwards, there were firecrackers one after another.

Although no announcements are allowed in the palace this year, the people outside the palace will inevitably welcome the arrival of the new year happily.

Gu Qinghuan hummed lightly and woke up.

"Look."

Gu Qinghuan pulled Yaqi, and immediately the two little maids stood up together, went to the window, and watched the fireworks in the distance.

"The new year is here."

Aunt Yuehua also turned from daze to sobriety at this moment, she glanced at the fireworks outside the window, and said to Yinzhen: "A new year is a new beginning."

"The empress is in the spirit of the sky, and she is always looking forward to Si elder brother looking forward to you."

Others may not know.

However, Aunt Yuehua knew that under Yinzhen's seemingly calm face, she still had many concerns about the deceased Empress Xiaoyi in her heart.

"Auntie, I understand."

Yinzhen nodded, and said to Nanny Zhuang: "It's getting late, take aunt down to rest."

"Yes." Nanny Zhuang agreed, and went to help Aunt Yuehua.

Not far away, Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi noticed the commotion here, and rushed over to follow Aunt Zhuang to send Aunt Yuehua back to rest.

Yinzhen stopped him ahead of time.

"Both of you are so sleepy, you should go back and rest earlier."

Yinzhen pursed his lips, without looking at the two of them, and said, "I ate a lot of hazelnuts, so I'm bound to be thirsty, so I'll drink more water when I go back. I don't need to wait for you tomorrow morning, just sleep a little longer."

"Yes!"

Gu Qinghuan and Yaqi seemed to have rarely seen Yinzhen talking so much, and the words were caring.

After happily agreeing, he said again: "I wish the fourth elder brother good luck in the new year and everything goes smoothly."

Yinzhen nodded without answering, and saw the two little maids holding hands, and left the room.

Snow was falling outside the window, but the backs of the two of them looked lively.For this snowy night, it also added a bit of different bright colors.

The next day, Gu Qinghuan was awakened by the sunlight outside the window.

Looking at the sky, it's almost time to arrive.

After a night of snow, it was rare to see a big sun this morning.Just looking out of the window through the window like this is a bit dazzling.

Jackie is still asleep.

In a hazy sleep, he turned around.

Lu Qinghuan tiptoed up and finished washing, then quietly went out the door.

At the door, Ah Shuang was cleaning the fallen snow on the ground.

The snow was a bit heavy last night, so Ah Shuang swept the snow on the road aside.The pile is so high that you can make a snowman out of it.

"Sister Qinghuan is awake."

Ah Shuang saw Gu Qinghuan coming out of the house, and said, "Today, the Imperial Dining Room delivered dumplings, as well as rice balls made of wine."

"I left a portion for you and Sister Yaqi, if my sister is hungry, go and eat."

"What about you?"

Gu Qinghuan asked: "It's so early, have you eaten yet? Didn't Si elder brother say that you can rest today, are you still here sweeping snow?"

Ah Shuang smiled shyly, and said with some embarrassment: "I've already eaten two corn buns. Somebody has to do the snow sweeping."

"If the masters want to go out, how can there be snow on the road?"

Gu Qinghuan glanced at the huge courtyard.

It was very empty, only Ah Shuang was alone.

"Someone has to do it, but why are you the only one?" Gu Qinghuan frowned and asked, "It's because other people are hiding, that's why you were asked to sweep the snow?"

Ah Shuang just entered the palace last year.

But at the age of ten, he has a gentle temper.

But she looks very cute, like a doll.In the eyes of some people, it is the kind that is easy to bully.

"Sister Qinghuan..."

Ah Shuang seemed to see that Gu Qinghuan was not very happy, so she hurriedly said, "I wanted to come by myself. After eating, there should be activities."

"I see."

Gu Qinghuan silently agreed, and went to the place where the palace maids had meals.

In the small room, some noise could be heard before approaching.

Talking and laughing, as if talking about something happy.

"I got a reward of one tael of silver from Aunt Yuehua today. I can finally have a good year this year. It would be great if life could always be this comfortable."

"Isn't it? It's rare that we don't have to work, so it's time for us to rest. I don't know if that damn girl, Ah Shuang, has finished sweeping the snow. It's already this hour, if the fourth elder brother goes out later and finds out..."

"When I found it, I found out that it was also an errand she took on by herself. Can we blame it?"

Gu Qinghuan stood outside the door, took advantage of the situation, and knocked on the door.
