Qing Dynasty: Pampering The Queen

Each prefecture also has its own rewards according to the occasion, each with a purse with exquisite embroidery.

The purse is embroidered with various auspicious patterns, and the purse contains all kinds of peanuts, melon seeds, red dates, lotus seeds and other golden scorpions, which are small and exquisite, and many of them are not gold scorpions, but gems or big pearls. It all depends on luck.

Everyone bustlingly took their purses, looked at each other to compare their luck, thanked each other, and after entering the hall, bowls of steaming hot dumplings just out of the pot were presented.

After eating dumplings, they bid farewell to the palace and returned home one after another.

Instructing the maids and eunuchs to take care of the children, Mu Jin and Fourth Master went back to Yikun Palace to rest.

This night, fourth master naturally refused to just go to bed so honestly and nothing happened. He thought about how the person who had been sleeping all night finally cuddled up in his arms and could do whatever he wanted, how could he bear it?

The first day of Chinese New Year is always different from other days, so don’t miss it

The next day, the courts and harems held grand congratulations respectively. It snowed heavily all night, and the world made of pink makeup and jade was white and pure. Lavishly dressed ladies came here, drawing a thick and colorful stroke between the heaven and the earth, which is extremely gorgeous.

After several days of busy work, when it was the ninth day of the lunar new year, I was finally able to clean up.

The sky was gloomy, with blue-gray clouds pressing low above the head, and there was a strange biting cold in the air.

According to the news from Qin Tianjian: There must be a heavy snowfall within a day or two.

The fourth master ordered the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, and the Nine City Bingma Division to deal with it, and then took Mu Jin and others to the Old Summer Palace.

This time, I didn't take the harem concubines, the third elder brother, Da Gege and so on.

The lake was already frozen solid.

Among the eunuchs and guards, there was a very skilled Binghe master, skating and playing in various tricks on the frozen lake. Sisi and Hongzhang cheered and followed suit.

Mu Jin and Fourth Master watched from a distance.

Seeing the siblings wrestling at first, Mu Jin couldn't stop laughing, and didn't let anyone stop them.

After learning it, it is also a skill to be able to move skillfully in the ice and snow. It's not a bad thing anyway.

Sure enough, at night, snowflakes fell one after another, bigger than those on New Year's Eve.

After a night of heavy snowfall, everything is covered in powder makeup, just like a world of glazed glass, which is completely different from what you see in ordinary times.

Delicate red plums, camellias, and rhododendrons appear even more beautiful in the world of white snow and glass, dotted among them, gorgeous and dazzling.

After staying for three days, when the ice and snow began to melt, Fourth Master took them back to the palace.

After this heavy snowfall, the weather is getting better day by day. The sun is shining brightly every day. Standing under the sun at noon, the bitter cold of winter has long since disappeared.

During the Lantern Festival, the moon is shining, the sky is clear, and the bright moonlight shines on the earth, which can be seen by men and eyebrows. The clear shadows of all objects are cast on the ground, which are completely different from those seen under the sun, as if floating in clean and transparent water.

This night, like every year, there will be an extremely lively lantern appreciation event in the capital.

Numerous beautiful lanterns of different shapes and qualities are arranged and extended on several streets, forming a gorgeous river of lights.

When Sisi was in Yunnan, she would definitely not miss all kinds of lively festivals, and naturally she refused to stay in the palace honestly today.

Mu Jin had long ago agreed to let her go out for a stroll.
