Chapter 464: No Return for Wealth
He took a look at it himself and felt as if something was missing.
After examining it carefully for a long time, she accidentally noticed that at the lower right corner of the Chinese character "Fu" there was a half small paw print left by Xinbao, which looked indescribably cute.
Emperor Mingpei glanced at Tuanzi.
Tuanzi saw that Yeye was thinking about something, so she sat down by herself. She was happily playing with the flowers on her skirt, but when she noticed Yeye's gaze, she looked up in surprise.
Emperor Mingpeidi put down his pen, picked up Tuanzi, rolled up her right sleeve, then took her little hand and gently pressed it into the inkstone.
Xinbao: “……???”
She opened her eyes wide in surprise, and saw Emperor Mingpei holding her little hand and pressing it on the written word "Fu".
Half word and half stroke, there is a stroke in the word, the grandparents and grandchildren are happy together, not necessarily solemn, but festive and close... Let them figure out the meaning of it themselves!
Emperor Mingpei was very satisfied and used the seal of "Mingpei Chenhan". Xinbao was still young and had no other seals except two seals of "Fuzhen" and "Princess Zhenguo" made by the Imperial Seal Supervisor when the title was conferred. Emperor Mingpei asked someone to bring them and used the small seal of "Fuzhen".
Then he looked back and forth again, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. He laughed and said, "Not bad, not bad! Xinbao, look, isn't it very good?"
Xinbao held up his ink-stained hands, very confused: "......?"
Soon, several teams of palace servants rode out of the palace at high speed.
Yuan Xiang, Li Tingfang, Xiao Tai, Liang Ruoxu and a few other officials were just about to enter the palace when they received the word "blessing" from the emperor.
There was no such custom before, but when they suddenly received it, they were very surprised. When they opened it, they saw the small handprint and were surprised. When they looked at the print again... these sperms each figured out five, six, seven or eight meanings.
Emperor Mingpei finished writing a set of Fu and asked someone to collect them. While drinking tea and thinking about it, he smiled and praised: "Xinbao, this is a good idea."
Tuanzi was too embarrassed to say that this was actually Emperor Kangxi's idea and could only smile foolishly.
Emperor Mingpei held her on his lap, took her little hand and looked at it, and said, "Didn't you say you had it dyed with nail polish yesterday? Why is it gone?"
Tuanzi said depressedly: "At night, Xinbao was sleeping, and I don't know when it fell off... But the top of the foot didn't fall off, it looks very beautiful, Yeye, do you want to see it?"
Emperor Mingpei: “…”
He was a little amused and shook his head: "Yeah, I won't watch it."
Tuanzi was very disappointed and looked at him eagerly: "But after dyeing it, no one has seen it yet. If no one sees it, doesn't it mean that it is not dyed?" She also recited a poem: "If you don't return to your hometown when you are rich and powerful, it's like walking in brocade clothes at night..."
Emperor Mingpei: “…”
He suppressed his laughter and said, "Well, then yeah, let's take a look."
So the grandparents took off their shoes and socks and happily admired the little chubby feet dyed with nail polish. Emperor Mingpei even praised them seriously: "They are really beautiful, like petals on a branch or red plum blossoms in the snow. Xinbaoer's feet are also very beautiful."
Tuanzi couldn't stop smiling.
Fang Wuyou silently looked at the two figures.
The emperor and his granddaughter were playing with their feet. Who would dare to believe this? I never expected that such a big emperor would be so good at lying. He could say anything, and even a red plum in the snow? ? Tsk tsk! Emperor Mingpei was afraid that Tuanzi would be cold, so he coaxed her to put it back on. The grandparents and grandchildren washed their hands and had lunch.
No one could replace the work on New Year's Day, but someone did the work on New Year's Eve, so they became the two most leisurely people.
After dinner, Xinbao even had time to take a nap. When she woke up, she asked someone to dress her up. She sat there for more than an hour.
At this moment, outside, the family members are busy with their own things.
Madam Lin came out around noon, and as soon as she came out, the Fifth Prince's wife caught up with her.
Madam Lin knew her intention and did not try to stop her, so the two of them came together to meet Concubine Shu and her entourage.
Emperor Mingpei was a workaholic and was not very keen on women, so in the palace, very few people were promoted because of the emperor's favor. Most of them were mothers who were promoted because of their sons. In other words, except for the annual routine small promotions, most concubines were promoted because of giving birth to sons.
There has been no beauty contest in the palace for five years. The youngest son of Emperor Mingpei is already eight years old. All the concubines are "old ladies". There is not a single young girl. Especially now that the emperor is old, he rarely enters the harem except during the New Year holidays... As a result, the ladies in the harem of the Mingpei Dynasty have low spirits and are very bent.
Before I met Madam Lin, I had already made up my mind to try my best to support her.
Mrs. Lin is a generous person to begin with, and others try hard to flatter her, so they get along very well.
After having lunch together, the noble ladies outside the palace arrived one after another.
Aunt Xu and Concubine Shu were beside her, introducing them to her one by one. What Lady Lin had to do was actually to accept the gift and offer a seat. Seeing an old man showing concern for her, she seemed to be respectful to him...
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
This was the first time that the prince and his wife came out to manage affairs, so there were unprecedented numbers of people coming, and they came in an endless stream.
Although Madam Lin was not used to doing this kind of thing, she was a martial artist, so it was not difficult for her to sustain this strength.
You know, it was the first time for the female members to see Madam Lin.
Although the men in the family may have said so, the image these people imagined could not be that good.
If Madam Lin had the appearance of a pretty girl from a small family, the effect might not be so good. However, Madam Lin is extremely dignified and bright, and extremely free and easy... This woman of the world is not afraid of the stage, and with her hair full of pearls and jade and her clothes full of gorgeous clothes, she looks very stylish and can definitely dominate the situation.
The psychological expectations are too low and the image in front of you is too good, so the feeling is doubly shocking.
Anyway, these people have only one thing in their mind… it can’t be fake!! What’s true is true!!
So the atmosphere here is very good.
On the other side, Yan Qingshan brought his son and brothers to meet these senior ministers.
Yan Qingshan is a man of few words and calm, and he has Yuan Xiang's help. He is facing some shrewd people, so he will never embarrass anyone and everything goes very smoothly.
After dinner, noble families arrived one after another.
There are several young men in the prince's family, both civil and military, so among the people who came this time, many brought girls of similar age, hoping to establish marriage; some brought young men of similar age, hoping to make friends among young people; and some actually brought little babies, hoping to give them as playmates to the Princess, and most of them came with the female family members.
So after entering and paying their respects, the young men separated, the scholars went to the left and the warriors went to the right.
The Sixth Prince was handsome and gentle, and was good at calligraphy and painting. He went to the left with his second brother, chatting with him with a smile on his face all the way, as if they had a very close relationship.
The Eighth Prince followed Yan Shifan and asked him in a low voice: "Zhiwei, can I go with you?"
Yan Shifan laughed hastily and said, "Uncle Eighth, please do as you please."
The Ninth Prince also followed silently.
