Queen Xiaoxi

Chapter 135 New Year’s Money (Flowers and More)

After the fireworks in front of the Qianqing Palace were set off, Kangxi still didn't let go of Wanxian's hand.

The concubines were very angry when they saw such a harmonious scene, but they couldn't say anything.

Wanxian snuggled next to Kangxi and watched the fireworks disappear.

Kangxi took Wanxian's hand, turned around and told the concubines: "It's almost time, let's all disperse. Everyone will be busy chattering all day tomorrow, so go back and rest." "

"Come on, slaves, please leave." The concubines quickly bowed and left.

Wanxian also bowed and was about to go back with the concubines, but she didn't expect to be grabbed by Kangxi.

Wanxian quickly stopped and approached Kangxi.

The concubines also walked slowly on the road under the reminder of their personal servants.

Wanxian lowered her head and stood in front of Kangxi.Kangxi touched Wanxian's crown and said, "Why are you so anxious? I haven't had a good word with you yet."

"Aren't you busy, Lord Long Live? I want you to have a rest, Lord Long Live." Wan Xian explained, pulling the hand that was resting on her auspicious crown.

Kangxi looked at the hands held by the two of them and asked happily: "Then Zhao Sanxi told you that your mama can't enter the palace to pay her respects?"

When Wanxian heard about this, she immediately beamed and asked curiously: "Yes, Eunuch Zhao said it all. When the slave found out, he was very happy. He even gave Eunuch Zhao a big red envelope."

"Really? That's a coincidence. Then Zhao Sanxi just reported a message to you and got a big red envelope. Then what good does it do for me, the one who gave the order?" Kangxi took Wanxian's hand and said narrowly. .

"Does the Long Live Lord also want a red envelope? But I don't have it now, so why not give it to the Long Live Lord tomorrow?" Wan Xian spoke to Kangxi in a negotiating tone.

"Hurry up and put away your red envelope. Maybe I can't do it without those few taels of silver. But this matter can't be passed off so easily. I owe you first. I'll settle the matter with you after the New Year." Kangxi pulled Wanxian. Her hand touched a turquoise ring on Wanxian's hand.

"Okay, all slaves will listen to Master Long Live." Wanxian said obediently.

"Tomorrow is a big day, don't wear such a petty ring. I want to see Dongzhu's ring when you put it on tomorrow. Eat a few more at the dumpling banquet tomorrow morning." Kangxi warned Wan again carefully. Xian.

"That ring is too precious, I'm afraid it will be too eye-catching." Wanxian said worriedly.

"Don't be afraid of anything. Just because it's a big day, you have to wear more jewelry to suppress others' momentum. Be obedient." Kangxi nodded Wanxian's forehead and pointed.

"Okay, slave, be obedient." Wanxian held Kangxi's hand lovingly and said.

"Good boy, so good boy. Today is New Year's Eve, look. What is this." Kangxi said as he took out a big red purse from his sleeve and handed it to Wan Xian.

Wanxian quickly took the purse and opened it.Inside were dozens of newly minted copper coins. "It's copper coins. Is it New Year's money?" Wanxian asked in surprise.This is the first time in her life that someone has given her lucky money seriously.

"Yes. When you go back, put your purse under the pillow so that my little girl can be safe throughout the next year." Kangxi touched Wanxian's hand with pity and said.

"Okay, I'll do it when I get back. Long live my lord, this is my happiest New Year's Eve." Wan Xian's tears of joy were shed unconsciously.

"Okay, don't be afraid of bad luck on New Year's Day. Don't cry. Go back. There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow." Kangxi gently wiped away the tears on Wanxian's face with his hands.If it hadn't been in public, Kangxi would have held his sweetheart in his arms and comforted her in a low voice.

Wanxian raised her head and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a choked voice: "Yes, I know. I'm going to leave." Wanxian held her purse tightly in her hand, performed a squat salute to Kangxi, and then went down by herself. Go.

Nanny Yun and Nanny Gu, who were waiting in the corner, quickly stepped forward to support Wanxian and walked outside.

A group of concubines walking slowly watched the interaction between the two of them.He squeezed the hand of his personal maid and walked towards his warm sedan with gritted teeth.

Wanxian hurriedly caught up with An Bin and Bu Guiren.Against the probing gazes of others, Wanxian hid the purse in her sleeve.

In that purse, there must be another treasure given to Shubin by the Long Live Lord.This is what all the concubines are thinking.They never imagined that what was in their wallets was just the most common copper coins.

After sitting on the warm sedan, Wanxian carefully took out the purse from her sleeve and took out all the coins in the purse.Wanxian carefully counted one copper plate after another. There were 81 copper plates in total, probably a ninety-nine number.Wanxian happily groped for the copper plate, thinking that when she returned to the bedroom, she would put her purse under the pillow.Wanxian thought so sweetly, and the sedan chair stopped.

"Your Majesty, we have arrived at the palace gate. Get off the sedan." Aunt Yun shouted from outside the sedan. "Okay, I understand." Wanxian responded.He hurriedly transferred the copper coins into his purse, and hurriedly stuffed the purse into his cuffs.

Aunt Yun and Nanny Gu lifted up the sedan curtain and carefully helped Wanxian out.

An Bi is getting older and can no longer hold on any longer.On the way back to the main hall, he waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse.

Wanxian was also supported by her nurse back to Yiqing's study room.

"Nanny, why don't you follow me tomorrow? Rest in the dormitory so as not to be tired." Wanxian said looking at the tired looking Nurse Gu.

"That's fine. I'll tidy things up for you in the dormitory, and you can have a rest when you come back. Let Qiaoguo and Yunxia accompany them. They are more knowledgeable. Caixia is also good, but more honest." The wet nurse agreed.In such a big scene, it's better not to go out and embarrass yourself.

"That's it." Wanxian entered her bedroom as she spoke.

The servants who stayed in Yiqing's study room quickly gathered around and wanted to help Wanxian change her clothes.

Wanxian waved her hand, signaling to stop first.The servants quickly stepped aside.

Wanxian quickly walked to the bed and carefully placed the purse in her sleeve under the Yuanyang pillow.Then he opened his mouth and ordered: "Come in and change my clothes."

Yunxia, ​​Qiaoguo and others who were outside quickly walked to the edge of the bed and carefully took off Wanxian's auspicious crown and auspicious clothes.After Wanxian took a shower and changed clothes, she finally got on the bed.

"Your Majesty, please rest early. After you sleep for two hours, it's time to get up. Early tomorrow morning, you will first go to the Imperial Concubine's Chengqian Palace. The Imperial Concubine will lead you to Ningshou Palace and Qianqing Palace. Please say hello." Qiaoguo said while standing by the bed.

"Okay. Got it. You should rest too." Wanxian said and turned over.

"Hey." Qiaoguo replied with one word and then put down the bed curtain.He sat on the pedal and dozed off in a daze.

Wanxian carefully took out her purse from under the pillow, and secretly counted it several times without giving up.But Wanxian also thought that it was time to go to bed.Then he was reluctant to put the copper coins into his purse and put the purse under the pillow.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Wanxian was called by Nanny Gu.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's time for you to get up." Nurse Gu called Wanxian lovingly.

"Okay, I'm up." Wanxian said, getting up and stretching on the bed. "Nanny, I just had a sweet dream. A wonderful dream." Wanxian said while stretching.

"Really? This means that your Majesty will be safe and sound this whole year." Nanny Gu said this and quickly pulled Wanxian up.

Listening to Nanny Gu's words, Wanxian felt that it was probably because Long Live the Lord gave her lucky money yesterday.If you put it under the pillow, wouldn't it be a lucky break for the New Year?

"My concubine, please put on your shoes quickly. You still have to wash up and change into court clothes. Aunt Yun just came over and said that Concubine An was up early that morning." Nanny Gu said anxiously.

"Okay, I got it, let's wash up and change clothes." Wanxian also became anxious when she heard that An Bin had already gotten up.

A group of servants quickly took out their court uniforms and crowns.After Wanxian put on her court clothes, she quickly ordered: "Yunxia, ​​here is the Dongzhu jewelry that Long live the Lord gave me earlier. Please take it over quickly."

"Come on, I'll go right now." Yunxia said, quickly going to the cabinet next to the dressing table.He brought a wooden carving box, opened the lid, and presented it to Wanxian.

Wanxian quickly took out a pair of gold bracelets containing two dragons playing with pearls and the East Pearl ring. "Put it on me quickly. The bracelet is on your right wrist and the ring is on your left hand."

"Why are you wearing these so well? Don't you dislike the weight of the court uniform?" Nanny Gu said.

"It's what Master Long Live ordered, just put it on." Wanxian said proudly.

Upon hearing that it was the Lord Long Live's order, Nurse Gu quickly helped Wanxian put it on.Finally, after putting on Wanxian's imperial crown, Yunxia and Qiaoguo supported her to the main hall where Concubine An was.

Thank you very much for the flower support from Lingling Changle, thank you very much.
