The smell of the New Year in the palace is still very strong.

All the way through, the palace lamps are hung everywhere, and the big word "Fu" can be seen everywhere, and there are several palace doors with Spring Festival couplets.

Regarding the source of the Han people's Spring Festival couplets for the New Year, Liangchen vaguely seems to have heard that it was created by Meng Chang, the lord of Houshu, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and it has been passed down since then.

In the Song Dynasty, the Spring Festival couplets are not called Spring Festival couplets, but called peach charms, Wang Anshi has a poem that is the Spring Festival couplets, saying that "thousands of households will always replace the new peach with the old one".

After the Ming Dynasty, the Spring Festival couplets can be regarded as really entering thousands of households, but whenever the New Year, every household has to paste the Spring Festival couplets and blessing words, and this custom has also been deeply imprinted into the bones of the descendants of the Han family.

Spring Festival couplets are not only blessings and expectations for the new year, but also a symbol of the Han people.

What is a Han person, a person who follows the same civilization, identifies with the same culture, and adheres to the same customs is a Han person.

can't do this, even if the blood of Yanhuang is flowing in his bones, he can't be called a Han people.

If you enter Hu, you will be Hu, and if you enter Han, you will be Han.

Liangchen remembered that when he was a child, his family celebrated the New Year, even if his father Wei Jinde didn't know a single big character, and he was reluctant to use straw paper in the thatched house on weekdays, he had to spend two copper plates at the entrance of the village to ask Wu Fuzi to write a Spring Festival couplet and hang it home.

Why?

Daddy can't say a big reason, but a simple sentence is enough - "This is handed down by our ancestors." ”

And every few days before the year, it is also the busiest time of the year for Wu Fuzi, because his old man has to inscribe Spring Festival couplets to the people in the village and even in several villages within a radius. No matter how tired and busy he is these days, Wu Fuzi's mood is happy.

Inheritance is to continue through small things.

To break the inheritance is to cut off our roots.

……

Along the way, many palace people and eunuchs wore new clothes and congratulated each other with joy.

Liangchen saw that many eunuchs who looked like they were of good grade specially carried a red bag, which contained large and small red envelopes, but if there was a New Year's greeting for him, he was happy to send a big red envelope.

In addition to the eunuchs, the palace people who have ministries are also distributing red envelopes. Although there are twenty-four yamen in the palace, they are in charge of the eunuchs. The palace people are in charge of the female officials. Such as Shangyi, Shanggong, Shangfu, Shangshi and other officials.

In the red envelope, there is no question of how much money there is, the picture is the heart, a festive.

The young man who got the red envelope and the palace people giggled, and after thanking the steward, the eunuch and the female official, they ran to the side and played with each other. Today is the third day of the new year, and the court is on holiday, and in addition to the necessary attendants in the palace, the rest of the people are also on holiday.

During the Chinese New Year, no matter how noisy the little eunuchs and palace maids are, whether they are in charge, whether they are the concubines and queens, even if they are the emperor, they will not blame. After all, every year is a year.

Although Zhu Changxun has moved out of the palace to live, he also lives in the palace when he is a child, and he is very familiar with this scene. He looked with great interest at the eunuchs and female officials in the distance who were handing out red envelopes, and his face was full of smiles.

Liangchen took a few steps behind him, pondering that His Royal Highness the Blessed King would not see the money, and asked his red envelope to hang up the addiction, and also ran to give people New Year's greetings and ask for red envelopes. If he really can let go of his body, it will be a big hair today.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness King Fu is a person with status after all, so he didn't do it. Although, his appearance looks eager.

Liangchen didn't want him to do this, because if he received too many red envelopes, it would not show the weight of his Wei Sheren's red envelopes.

Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and affectionate.

Liangchen can point to thirty-two to buy His Royal Highness the Fu Wang, no matter what, before Wanli dies, this Fu Wang Ye can still wave a few times.

Master, he didn't dare to think about it, if he knew that he had become a Taoist friend with him, I was afraid that the earthquake would shake the mountain.

When he arrived at Yikun Palace, Zhu Changxun originally wanted to take Liangchen in, but after thinking about it, he asked Liangchen to wait outside.

Liangchen didn't dare to disobey his orders, and stood by the palace gate alone.

There was laughter from time to time in Yikun Palace, which sounded very lively, no wonder Wang Tiqian gave himself such a look. For the New Year, the concubine is really in a good mood here. She is in a good mood, and she will naturally be stained on the side of the people.

There were no guards in the palace, only eunuchs guarding them. After all, the women living in the palace, whether they are concubines or ordinary palace people, are nominally the emperor's women, how can they call some normal men to haunt here.

Cuckolding the emperor is not a big rebellion.

Zhu Changxun went in for a while, and he didn't know what the mother and son were talking about, and the good minister stood bored, watching the palace eunuchs go in and out.

After a while, a eunuch came over and called him: "Wei Sheren, the emperor and Niangniang announced that you are in." ”

Liangchen knew this person, and the last time Wang Tiqian took him into the palace, he seemed to call this person Gonggong Liu, and it seemed that he was a eunuch who could be used by the side of the concubine. Immediately, I touched a red envelope and handed it over.

"Huh? The little case leader is so polite. ”

Liu Cheng's eyes narrowed, he accepted the red envelope with a smile, and then led Liangchen inside. Because he knew that this little case was very valued by his mother, and he accepted a red envelope from others, Liu Cheng had a more cordial attitude and said a few gossips with Liangchen.

When he arrived outside the hall, Liu Cheng spoke outside, and soon Zheng Guifei's voice came from inside: "Let him come in." ”

Liu Cheng nodded to Liangchen, who hurriedly walked into the hall and bowed: "Minister Wei Liangchen has seen Your Majesty, the noble concubine!" After thinking about it, he added, "I wish Your Majesty and the noble concubine Niangniang can make a fortune in the new year, and the wealth will roll in!" ”

"Oh?"

Wanli, who was holding a jade Ruyi in his hand, heard this, his face was stunned for a moment, and then he stretched out, looked at Wei Liangchen with a smile, and nodded sincerely: "Okay, Dafa, Dafa, this is festive, I love to hear it." ”

"This kid just can talk." Concubine Zheng laughed, and raised her hand to Liangchen, "Come forward and speak." ”

"Yes, sissy."

Liangchen hurriedly walked forward, and only then did he notice that in addition to Wanli's two sons in the hall, there were also Zhu Changxun, a red-robed eunuch, a green-robed eunuch, a female official, and two children.

One of the children looked like he was three or four years old, and the other looked like he had just turned a year old, being held in the hands of a woman.

Could it be that these two are Zhu Changxun's sons?

It is estimated that Concubine Zheng Guifei is Zhu Changxun's mother-in-law, and these two children are her own grandsons.

One of them is afraid that it will be the future Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong, Liangchen looked at the three or four-year-old fat man, laughed, and then subconsciously took out the red envelope in his arms, walked in front of the fat man, took out a red envelope and handed it to the other party.

"This must be the emperor's grandson, come and come, the minister will give a red envelope for the New Year."

Liangchen was familiar with himself, and after sending Zhu Yousong's, he took out two red envelopes and handed them to the woman holding the child, and then, under the surprised eyes of everyone, he sent one more to the two eunuchs and the female official.

The festive words in the mouth are endless, Wishing you prosperity to the floating of the hall.

Everyone was stunned, and Concubine Zheng held back a smile.

Wanli's expression was very strange, and after Wei Liangchen finished distributing the red envelopes and walked to the center to stand again, Wanli actually showed a little disappointment, and then coughed lightly and reminded the young man: "This, for the New Year, since you sent red envelopes, why didn't I and the concubine have them?" ”
