The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty
Chapter 142 Mid-Autumn Festival Dinner and Wedding
In the end, everyone at the banquet went to see Qingyin, and only a few of them looked thoughtfully at Emperor Kangxi who was sitting at the top. This Lin was a beautiful girl when she became a concubine. If she had not married the Ninth Prince, the Emperor would definitely have taken her as a concubine.
Not only the court officials who were thoughtful, but even Concubine Yi was secretly observing the expression of Emperor Kangxi.
Kangxi's face was expressionless, with only a hint of smile from the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. Concubine Yi didn't notice anything unusual and felt relieved.
Kangxi seemed to glance in Qingyin's direction unintentionally. The glance was extremely complicated and disappeared so quickly that it was impossible to detect it.
If he were young, he would definitely take her as his concubine, but now he is old. Forget it. Lin has entered his Aisin-Gioro family, and it is a bargain for Yinzhen. I guess the prince has been cheated by him.
Emperor Kangxi glanced at the crown prince sitting below him. As expected, the crown prince did not have the calmness that Kangxi had cultivated for so long. He was staring at Qingyin's direction with sharp and obsessed eyes.
Seeing the prince's dismay, Kangxi found it inexplicably funny, but he was still a little unhappy to see his son's change of expression. He knew that it was the prince who helped Yinzhen marry Lin, but didn't the prince also inherit most of Yinzhen's wealth?
The prince had no idea that his royal father was secretly observing him. At this moment, he only felt a strong sense of being deceived. Looking at the breathtakingly beautiful Lin Qinrou, he felt lost and obsessed. If, if Yinzhen had not said that to him, he could have let her marry him.
Yinzhen curled his lips slightly when he received the jealous and resentful gaze of the prince. Asking someone to do something is a one-for-one exchange. Since the prince has accepted his money, how can he covet his wife? Haha, the prince's appetite has really been opened up by his father. He wants to have a bite of everything good. I just don't know if he can ascend the throne smoothly.
Qingyin watched the dancers' performance with admiration. The dance rehearsed to celebrate the banquet was neat and graceful. In particular, the dancers were all pretty and slim. Their dance was simply a pleasure to watch and she enjoyed it very much.
Yin'er's face turned a little bad. Those court officials and guests looked at Rou'er, and those dancers were very bold and even flirted with Rou'er. He was so angry that he felt depressed.
Qingyin was used to these looks and didn't notice Yinzhen's expression. After a while, when the water in Yinzhen's cup overflowed between her fingers, she noticed Yinzhen's ugly face.
Qingyin was a little amused, and whispered in Yinzhen's ear: "If you pour more water, I will be drowned in your jealousy."
When Yinzhen heard this, his ears turned red before he realized his mistake. He quickly stopped the teapot and started chatting with Qingyin again.
"Rou'er looks at them, not at me. Don't I look good?"
"My Lord is really... My Lord is my husband, they are just dancing."
The only thing that came into Yinzhen's mind was the sweet word "husband". Everything else was blocked out by him. The man who was so happy in his heart no longer cared about the dancers and guests.
Oh, those people were just passers-by in Rouer's life, but he was Rouer's legitimate husband. Thinking of this, he looked at the people around him with superiority.
The performance was over, and seeing the crowd gathering around, Yinzhen took his beloved wife and left carelessly using the excuse of pregnancy.
Looking at Yinzhen's smug behavior, Concubine Yi who was sitting above felt that he deserved a beating, but looking at Qingyin's slightly bulging belly, her eyes were gentle and expectant.
Qingyin definitely supported leaving. She had always supported the idea of being Buddhist to the end. Dealing with so many people, she was afraid that she would not be able to finish her words even if she talked a lot. Thinking of this possibility, Qingyin held Yinzhen's hand even tighter.
Yinzhen thought that his young wife was nervous, so he walked even further outside.
After they left, everyone present couldn't help but complain about the Ninth Prince.
"Ninth prince is too stingy. He took his concubine away so soon." Guaerjia Yuqi stared obsessively at the direction where Qingyin left in the distance. When she turned her eyes back, they happened to meet her father's. Her eyes froze and she lowered her head guiltily, no longer participating in the discussion.
Even without Guarjia Yuqi, there are still others.
"Yes, Ninth Prince is really lucky to have a beauty like Linggege."
"If you ask me, Ling Gege is a legitimate wife, so the rank of concubine is still too low."
"Yes, yes, yes, Ninth Prince is really something."
……
A little girl in blue who was watching came to her senses a little and looked at the people who were discussing excitedly. Wasn't it the sister in green who just said that Ling Gege was not worthy of the Ninth Prince?
And the lady of the Fu family, didn't she say that Ling Gege's status was too low, and that the concubine shouldn't be taken by a county magistrate's concubine's daughter? ... The little girl in blue listened and fell into deep thought.
Sure enough, Linggege's beauty is invincible.
Without Qingyin's presence, everyone lost interest in the banquet. They were either in a daze or thinking, so Kangxi ended the banquet early.
— — — — — — — — — — — —
"Let me tell you, the Ninth Prince's concubine is so beautiful that the Ninth Prince is totally unworthy of her." The pretty-looking Guarjia Yuqi boasted to the girl in pink in front of her.
The little girl in pink is Guaerjia Yuqi's good friend, He Jiayu, the concubine daughter of Minister of Rites He Ling.
Guaerjia Yuqi couldn't resist the desire to share, so she couldn't help but extend an invitation to her good friend He Jiayu.
He Jiayu is also very pretty, and they have similar personalities, so they have a good relationship.
He Jiayu couldn't help but put her hand on Guaerjia Yuqi's forehead and said suspiciously, "Are you crazy? Didn't you say a few days ago that Lin was not worthy of the Ninth Prince?"
"Hehe, that was because I was ignorant before." Guaerjia Yuqi patted He Jiayu's hand and said.
Thinking of the incomparably beautiful Concubine Lin, Guaerjia Yuqi blushed: "You don't know how beautiful Concubine Lin is. She is really beautiful, with skin as white as snow, beautiful eyes, and red lips..."
"No way, you've gone from coveting the Ninth Prince to coveting Concubine Lin." He Jiayu widened her eyes and looked at Guaerjia Yuqi seriously.
"What are you thinking about!" Guaerjia Yuqi rolled her eyes at her friend.
Seeing her friend who was in a bad temper as usual, He Jiayu felt relieved. She thought that she was still her normal friend. She thought that Guarjia Yuqi was possessed by evil spirits.
Seeing that He Jiayu was thinking more and more, Guaerjia Yuqi hurriedly stopped her.
"Concubine Lin and I are not like that. Concubine Lin is a fairy who accidentally fell from the sky. We are just specks of mud on the ground. There is a difference between immortals and mortals, okay? I just admire Concubine Lin who is as beautiful as a fairy."
"Okay, but is Concubine Lin really that beautiful?" He Jiayu couldn't imagine it. She looked at Guaerjia Yuqi suspiciously.
"Of course, Concubine Lin is the most beautiful person in the world." Guaerjia Yuqi glared at her friend. As a die-hard fan, she strongly supported Qingyin's beauty.
Seeing Guaerjia Yuqi so excited, He Jiayu actually believed it 80%. The remaining 20% was just because she couldn't imagine it because she hadn't seen it in person.
The two of them were sitting in the pavilion talking excitedly and didn't notice a tall and cold figure at all.
"Yuqi, it's getting late, remember to send her back early." A gentle voice interrupted them.
"Hello, big brother." Guaerjia Yuqi hurriedly bowed to her big brother Guaerjia Rongying.
Although the eldest brother has always been nice to her, she is always afraid of him out of her little animal instinct, especially since he went out with cousin Baotai last time, she always feels that he has changed a lot.
I heard that my elder brother wanted to go to a Taoist temple, but now he didn't say he was going. Guaerjia Yuqi didn't understand what magic the Taoist temple had that made her gentle and talented elder brother want to go there. Could it be that her elder brother wanted to become a monk? She was curious but didn't dare to ask her brother.
He Jiayu, who was standing by, also bowed to Guarjia Rongying in a reserved manner: "Hello, Brother Rongying."
Guarjia Rongying nodded, his face was kind, but there was no trace of emotion in his eyes.
He Jiayu stood there nervously. She was actually a face control, but she was always afraid to be unrestrained in front of her best friend's eldest brother. Brother Rongying of Guaerjia looked as gentle as jade and had a soft temperament, but she just felt that he was difficult to approach. When she came to play with her friends before, she also avoided Brother Rongying.
Guaerjia Yuqi obviously understood He Jiayu's nervousness very well. The two of them stood in the small pavilion trembling with fear, like two children who had made a mistake, pitiful and helpless.
Fortunately, Guarjia Rongying was just passing by and left soon.
After Guarjia Rongying walked away, the two little girls collapsed on their chairs as if relieved.
"Yuqi, your elder brother is so aggressive right now. I dare not move even if I stand here."
"Don't mention you, I am the same."
The two looked at each other silently, expressing their relief and sympathy for each other.
Because of Guaerjia Rongying, the two lost interest in talking about what happened just now, and He Jiayu made up an excuse and left.
"Then Yuqi, I'll come play with you next time. I'm leaving now."
"See you."
Guarjia Rongying, who was leaving, looked at himself on the water with sarcasm and lost his composure.
He had clearly made up his mind not to think about Concubine Lin anymore, but when he heard her name he lost his mind and started scolding the two little girls. What he was thinking was much more excessive than that of his simple sister, and he even blamed his sister.
He was really ridiculous, but how could he forget such a beauty?
If someone could see the eldest son of Guarjia at this moment, they would probably be shocked speechless by his dejection and loss.
Qingyin could no longer suppress her sleepiness after returning to Prince Heqin's mansion, so Yinzhen gently held her in his arms, helped her wash, and then placed her on the soft bed.
The cold night wind and the pitch-black night sky cannot block the warmth in the room.
Yinzhen hugged the soft Qingyin and fell into a sweet dream together.
After a night, when Qingyin woke up, Yinzhen had already ordered another table full of delicious dishes, waiting for Qingyin to eat when she woke up.
While Qingyin was still in a daze, she was carried to the dining table. Linlin's various delicacies were delicately placed on various exquisite small plates. They were colorful, fragrant and delicious. The nose was filled with the delicious smell of food. Qingyin couldn't help but open her taste buds.
Seeing Qingyin eating with relish, Yinzhen seemed even happier than her. With a wave of his hand, the cook in the kitchen received many rewards.
After breakfast, Yinzhen carefully took his beautiful young wife for a walk in the garden.
In the garden, there were some rare and precious flowers that Yinzhen had collected from various places. They were stunningly beautiful, especially the neatly planted rows of peach trees, which were a variety that Yinzhen had carefully selected. Thanks to the gardener's meticulous care, the flowers bloomed beautifully. The pink, lavender and white petals floated gently away from the branches due to the autumn wind, forming a rain of flowers that was as beautiful as a dream.
As it happened, a petal fell on Qingyin's head, and the person stood out against the flower, making her look incredibly beautiful. Qingyin looked like a beauty who had become a fairy in the peach tree, and Yinzhen was stunned for a moment.
He held Qingyin in his arms proudly, "Rou'er, it would be great if this baby is a girl. She will definitely be as pretty and cute as Rou'er."
"I specially had someone design a set of pink clothes and hats for her to wear beautifully and make the brothers envious."
Qing Yin couldn't help but twitch her lips as she looked at the big words displayed on the system screen: [Gender is both male. ]
It seems that the prince’s wish cannot be fulfilled this time. Qingyin raised her eyebrows and thought that perhaps some little darling could devote herself to the show by dressing herself in pink to show her father.
Since the master wanted a little girl so much, she couldn't break his hope, so she let him be happy. The considerate Qingyin smiled and nodded: "Okay, then the master must prepare well."
Yinzhen nodded excitedly, not noticing Qingyin's eyes that were watching the show. He was immersed in the scene of showing off in front of others with his beautiful little princess and beautiful wife in the future.
The autumn wind gradually grew stronger. Yinzhen was worried that Qingyin would be cold, so he held Qingyin's hand and walked back: "The wind is strong, let's go back to the house."
Qingyin nodded and they walked towards the yard together.
The pace of autumn was accelerating and the weather was getting colder. Yinzhen also wanted Qingyin to move around outside, so he only let Qingyin walk around inside the house.
In the same month, the palace physician also diagnosed that the concubine was pregnant with twins. Upon hearing the news, the palace received a large number of rewards, which also brought more envy and jealousy to Yinzhen.
At the end of winter in the 45th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, the weather turned to spring, and Qingyin gave birth safely to four little princes.
Yinzhen looked at his four sons, who were too big to be held in one hand, with a confused and silly look of joy. Although the four sons were all good-looking, they were not pretty little princesses. Who would wear the pink clothes he prepared?
The midwife thought that the Ninth Prince was so happy that he had gone crazy, and they all said auspicious words of congratulations.
When Kangxi heard the news in the palace, he was delighted but also a little shocked. "Really, four little princes?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, Concubine Lin has safely given birth to four little princes." Liang Jiugong spread the news happily. As eunuchs, they liked to spread such happy events. If the Majesty was happy, he would give them a lot of rewards.
"Okay, okay, Lin has done a great deed and gave birth to auspicious children. The four little princes will be named Hongzheng, Hongxun, Hongxiang, and Hongji. (There is a historical reference here)"
"Wait a minute." Kangxi stopped Liang Jiugong who came to report the good news. After thinking for a while, Laojiu didn't have any other ideas. Lin was indeed rare, so he exempted Laojiu from his own request.
"Pass on my order. Lin has made great contributions, has a kind and virtuous character, and is a virtuous woman... I think this woman is very good, and I will make her the legitimate wife of Yinzhen."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Liang Jiugong suppressed the shock in his heart. He really didn't expect that His Majesty actually had such a great liking for Concubine Lin. But when he thought about Concubine Lin's angelic beauty and the four auspicious little princes, Liang Jiugong also understood.
On the one hand, there was the eunuch who went to Prince Heqin's mansion with His Majesty's reward and imperial edict, while on the other hand, the other princes who learned that the Ninth Prince had four little princes had different expressions and were jealous of the Ninth Prince's good fortune.
