Chapter 12: Lv Zhi is rarely looked down upon by others
The eldest brother Yinzhen, as the first prince to be granted the title of prince, was very proud in front of Emperor Kangxi in the early days.
Although all the princes in the dynasty combined may not be as favored as Prince Yinreng, over the past few decades, the only one who can compare with the prince is the eldest brother.
After all, this is the first child to survive after the young Kangxi's five children died in a row. He is strong and capable in both civil and military affairs. How could a father not love him from the bottom of his heart?
The eldest prince was the first to leave the palace and build a mansion, so his birthday on this day was naturally held in a very appropriate manner.
After Dafujin married the eldest prince, the couple tried hard to give birth to a legitimate son.
After giving birth to four golden flowers in five years, it was rare that Dafujin did not have a pregnant belly and took care of it himself.
On that day, men and women sat separately and had a lot of fun.
Lu Pheasant just looked at him a few more times when Da Fujin and his eighth brother came to toast alone. Who went over so quickly to give Yinzhen a piece of his tongue?
What's more, with Lu Zhi's self-control, she only glanced at him twice.
The official family members present had a lot of fun with the thirteen-and-a-half-year-old Yinhu, who was fair-skinned and beautiful.
Even San Fujin and Wu Fujin talked to Yinhu for a while.
They all asked embarrassing questions about why he didn't hold a banquet alone, but Lu Zhi didn't interfere at all.
Here, there is someone who dares to apply eye drops to Brother Si. Who could it be?
In his two lifetimes, Lu Pheasant had never had any experience of being jealous. In the blink of an eye, he habitually thought of palace fighting.
Completely forget about the sweetheart who needs to be coaxed.
Yinzhen felt helpless when he saw that Xiao Fujin had a more serious face than him in the blink of an eye.
What happened to him today? He became jealous for no reason and even scared little Fujin.
One of them was introspecting, the other was thinking, but the frequency was not even close to each other.
A night of silence.
The next day, Lu Pheasant soon found out.
Pin'er: "When I came back yesterday, Aunt Kui served Master the sobering tea. Now, she is still staying in front and has not returned to the backyard."
Aunt Kui is the old man who lives next to the imperial concubine Tong Jia, the adoptive mother of the fourth elder brother. She had also been the wet nurse of the fourth elder brother earlier.
It's understandable that she wants to talk about it now. The imperial concubine is dead, and if she still wants to gain face in front of Fourth Brother, she must naturally show her value.
She just stepped on the face of the new mistress Ulanara. Was she overestimating her abilities?
"I remember that now Aunt Kui is serving the Li family."
Pin'er nodded: "Fu Jin remembers it correctly."
Lu Pheasant rolled his eyes: "It's time to go pay your respects to the empress."
The empress she was talking about was naturally the real mother-in-law and concubine above her.
Yonghe Palace.
Lu Pheasant waited in Baoxia for a short while and was summoned only after he heard the boy's voice disappearing inside.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine De, and paying my respects to the Imperial Concubine."
"It's a very cold day, so I'll make you wait. The fourteenth skin monkey made a fuss early in the morning and refused to wear a moose leather jacket. He went to the study just now. I'm afraid he will be scolded."
The fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen was only six years old after his birthday at the beginning of the year. He was at the age when cats hate dogs, and Concubine De's preference for him was true.
It's just this kind of kindness that Yinzhen has probably never felt with De Fei.
As a sister-in-law, Lu Fei didn't comment on her brother-in-law, but just smiled politely along with him.
Concubine De greeted me gently: "Hurry up and use some milk tea."
We have even found out that the new daughter-in-law likes to drink milk tea in winter, so can Aunt Kwai's movements be hidden from Concubine De?
The key is that if Lu Pheasant doesn't come today, Concubine De may not be able to take action.
Lu Pheasant came to give Concubine De this convenience.
Even though the relationship between Concubine De and Yinzhen was weak, from Concubine De's perspective, she couldn't hope that her son would still have her former adoptive mother by her side.
It doesn't matter whether Grandma Kui's restlessness is due to herself or Mr. Li's intention.
This matter is difficult for Fourth Brother and his wife to handle. No matter which one of them opens his mouth, it is inevitable that he will be accused of treating the imperial concubine harshly.
It is most appropriate to leave it to Concubine De to deal with the evil servants in her son's yard.
With Fourth Brother's prudent attitude, he didn't punish Aunt Kui last night, but he also didn't let her return to Mr. Li, which was a hint.
"In the cold weather from now on, if you have nothing to do, you can rest in the courtyard more often. There are not so many rules in Enie."
In the palace, only the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager of Cining Palace had the right to pay respects on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. Naturally, the remaining four concubines in power did not dare to set their own rules for greetings.
Up front, as soon as Dafujin walked through the door, his body was not calm, and Concubine Hui never forced her to establish the rules of a daughter-in-law.
Er Fujin hasn't come through yet.
The three Fujins who started at the same time also got an advantage. However, they will not press the heads of the concubines to greet them.
In this way, Sanfujin and Wufujin did not often greet Concubine Rong and Concubine Yi, and they would look bad when they came back.
Lu Zhi just counted the days and came over every three or five days to chat a few words: "My daughter-in-law made some plum snacks, which are quite delicious. I thought I would give them to Eni to try."
Concubine De was old and could not eat the overly sweet snacks in the palace. Although the imperial kitchen was like her own territory, she always had a gentle image and made too many demands, as if she was making things difficult for her servants.
It’s been a long time, and now I eat less snacks.
In the past, Concubine De was a good hand at making snacks. Her daughter-in-law liked her, and Concubine De was willing to give her the favor. She took a bite and found it tasted sweet and sour. She finished the whole thing in one moment and then said: "With your hands, It's a coincidence. I think he will be lucky to come to Yinzhen in the future."
Lu Zhi smiled appropriately: "It's all thanks to Eni, my daughter-in-law understands." If it weren't for the convenience provided by the dining room, it would be difficult for her to realize her ideas.
Looking at her well-behaved daughter-in-law, who ate another plum cake, Concubine De thought for a while and slowly spoke: "Originally, I was worried that Yinzhen would not take good care of the people around him after he left the palace. With you here, I feel relieved now." Now. When the Song family's child in the backyard is born, it's time to talk and take care of it, I will keep it in mind."
Lucky hit.
Lu Pheasant immediately looked frightened, and his words of thanks were also beautiful.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were drinking milk tea and eating plum cakes, and talked about the fourteenth incident again, looking very happy.
After resigning, Lu Fei left the palace gate, returned to his elder brother's house, changed his shoes, and then removed the smile on his face.
The design of these three-inch high palace shoes is really uncomfortable.
But the information obtained from De Fei was still worth it.
It turns out that the eye drops that Aunt Kui gave to Yinzhen were about leaving the palace and building a mansion.
A few days ago, San Fujin and Wu Fujin came over and revealed that Concubine Rong and Concubine Yi had gone to deliver soup and ginseng tea to Qianqing Palace for their son, so naturally they were blowing pillows for Emperor Kangxi.
There is still no movement in Yonghe Palace.
Lu Pheasant knew that the two sisters-in-law were here to increase their presence, so she didn't panic at all.
In later generations, the Yonghegong Temple was regarded as a must-visit place in the capital to offer incense. Although there was a kind of efficacious method that ignored the after-sales service, the location was not bad at all.
Later, Yinzhen was given a world-famous Old Summer Palace.
Lu Pheasant was not worried at all that Emperor Kangxi, who was in charge of the world, would treat the princes harshly on real estate.
Did it turn out that Aunt Kui just stepped on her by the way?
As the imperial concubine Tong Jia's old friend, she didn't want the mother-son relationship between Yinzhen and her biological mother to get better.
Disgusting, but reasonable.
However, Lu Pheasant, who had not been so despised for a long time, felt very complicated in his heart.
