The author has something to say: This article is being overhauled.

"Hey, Little Twelve, sit here!" Yong Xing saw Qi Yao from a distance, and immediately waved his hands to greet him.

Qi Yao walked to Yong Xing's side, and sat down on a chair covered with wolf fur. Xiao Linzi quickly handed him a carved silver charcoal stove, and then stood up behind him, with lowered eyebrows.

Qi Yao took over the hand stove, although he was not afraid of the cold, but the warm warmth still made him feel comfortable from the bottom of his heart: "Yong Xing has met you brothers."

"The twelve brothers are so polite." The one who answered was Yongzhang, who currently occupies the title of the eldest son of the emperor. Gentle and elegant, people can't help feeling good after seeing it.

"Little Twelve, why are you late today?" Yong Xing and Qi Yao used to live together in the Queen's Kunning Palace, and after moving to Elder Brother's house, they also lived in two adjacent courtyards, and they had the best relationship. Naturally, he didn't shy away from it at this time, and asked loudly.

"Heh..." Qi Yao pursed his lips and chuckled lightly, "I met Fifth Brother and that Princess Huanzhu on the road, so I came late."

Hearing this, the four elder brothers present here——Yongzhang, Yongxuan, Yongxuan, and Yongxuan—all showed expressions of understanding.The eighth elder brother, Yongxuan, taunted without shyness at all: "Oh, my good fifth brother, I saw the right eye with that Huanzhu Gege, isn't it bad luck for whoever meets the other?"

"Old Ba!" Yongxuan's half-brother and now the king of Kejun, Yongxuan couldn't stand it any longer--look at what he said? "Looked right at each other"?Can you talk nonsense? !This is not about brother and sister love!

Yongxuan knew she had made a slip of the tongue, but obediently shut her mouth and stopped talking.

Qi Yao, who knew the general idea of ​​Huanzhu, smiled silently in his heart—oh, didn't they see each other right, and finally returned to the world of mortals as company, chic and unrestrained, galloping on horses, galloping to Yunnan!After thinking about it, Qi Yao took a playful look at Yongxuan—I didn't expect you, starling, to have the potential to be the Emperor of Truth...

After a while, the fifth elder brother brought Huanzhu Gege, followed by the Fu family brothers and two court ladies (does anyone remember Jin Suo...), and a group of people came over in a "mighty" way—of course, As a bald elder brother and Ge Ge who has no grades, no grades and no ranks, the "guard of honor" of the fifth elder brother and Huanzhu Gege is not even as good as Erde Mota Ama - Shuo Weng Keluo is also a first-class public at any rate. The ceremonial guard is the same as the Heshuo forehead son-in-law, two of my guards, two of standing melons, two of lying melons, and two of Guduo; one red embroidered crank embroidered treasure-faced flower umbrella, two red embroidered treasure-faced flower umbrellas, two red embroidered peacock fans; ; Eight people were cited before, and four maids accompanied the court.

However, the fifth elder brother and his party feel good about themselves. A bald elder brother, a princess who is not a jade card, two coated servants, and two court ladies sat down together, beside a group of prince elder brothers—although the fifth elder brother They stayed away a little "nobly", and of course, the people around them also vacated a considerable distance - very conspicuous.

Brother Wu and Princess Huanzhu were probably the last group to arrive, because not long after they sat down, Qianlong, who was sitting high in the middle of the stand, announced the start of the ice play with a big wave of his hand.Eredengbao and Fengsheng, who are in charge, faced the command directly below.Thus, the annual Ice Play Ceremony officially started.

The ancestors of the Qing royal family lived in Changbai Mountain for generations, and hunting was part of their source of livelihood.So they are not only good at riding and shooting, but also good at skiing and skating, and use them in combat.Qing □□□□Hachi's general Fei Gulie once relied on skating to "travel seven hundred miles day and night" to defeat the enemy.According to the records of "Old News under the Sun": "Taiye Pond Dongyue performed ice frolics, practiced hard work and rewarded, used military exercises, and cultivated national customs." This all shows that the royal family once used skating as one of the military training items. , Bingxi in Taiyechi has maintained this kind of training system.However, the weather in Shanhaiguan is not too cold, and there is no need for skating in combat, so the Qing royal family's annual ice play in Taiye Lake is actually a kind of recreational activity.

Ice fun includes various entertainments such as walking on skates, grabbing, grabbing the ball, turning the dragon to shoot the ball, skidding and tarting.Ice entertainment began to take shape in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and flourished in the Qing Dynasty.After the Manchus took over the Central Plains, they also brought the common ice games in the north to Beijing, and combined them with the ice activities in the colder northern areas of the Central Plains. Over time, a series of ice games were formed.

In the Qing Dynasty, Bingxi was limited to the Eight Banners, the royal family's direct line troops. Two hundred representatives were selected for each banner, plus the forward and guard commanders, a total of 12 people. The scene was quite lively.The performing soldiers are divided into two wings, with 160 leaders in each wing wearing red and yellow jackets, and the rest wear red and yellow shoulder-length jackets. There are 40 shooting soldiers and [-] young children. The Eight Banners are of different colors, walking on the ice one by one.Winners are then rewarded.In addition to general skating, there are also performances of archery, ball playing and single and double performances on the ice.

Compared with previous years, Bingxi this time is more lively and innovative—probably because the chief executives are two Heshuos who may not even be considered young?In short, everyone watched with great interest—figure skating and ice acrobatics more than doubled compared to previous years.Figure skating moves include big scorpion, golden rooster independence, Nezha exploring the sea, □□yan, thousand tendon pendant, etc. Acrobatic skating includes archery, pole climbing, pole turning, flying fork, knife juggling, stick making, and flag making, etc. Perform handstands or pull flags on poles, bars, shoulders, and arms.

The first ones to appear on the stage were of course the athletes of the Three Banners of Manchuria, each wearing yellow, yellow, and white armor and skates, gliding on the frozen lake; Different armors, the Eight Banners of Manchuria are all here, Qi Yao looked from a distance from the stands, only felt that the yellow, white, red and blue colors were too dazzling.

"Who is that person?" Qi Yao squinted his eyes, and his eyes fell on a young boy wearing a red flag mandarin jacket—it was said to be a young boy, but he actually looked about the same age as Qi Yao, um, it seemed to be smaller .

"Which one are you talking about?" It wasn't Xiaolinzi who answered, but Erdemo, who hadn't appeared today.

"Yo, why is Erdemo here?" Qi Yao turned his head, saw Erdemo dressed in the clothes of the prince of the people, and raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you with A Mouqi today?"

"That was also the beginning, Bing Xi, looking at this position, it's messed up, it's also a disguised form of contact and 'emotion'!" Erdemo motioned Qi Yao to look around the people, "The King Zhuang is so The one sitting at the clan's place, isn't it now the prince's elder brother?"

"Oh, what's the difference?" Qi Yao followed Erdemo's gaze, and sure enough, he saw Yong Rong sitting and chatting with the elder brothers, "After all, he is still the elder brother, although he has no inheritance right now. , the title is also different, but after all, isn’t it Huang Ama’s bloodline?”

"Look at Fulong'an again," Erdemenun said, "Did you see that one with an eight-year-old child, he just ran to the emperor's place."

"Who is that child?" That child was wearing a small mandarin jacket with a yellow flag on it, and a red fox-fur cap on his head, looking so cute.

"The third child of Fu Heng's family, Fu Kang'an." Erdemo introduced, "Fu Chang'an, the youngest in their family, was only two years old, so he didn't bring it out. The emperor likes Fu Kang'an very much. It is said that Fu Kang'an looks very similar. The former Crown Prince Duanhui."

"Heh...Prince Duanhui..." Qi Yao's breath dropped a few degrees, and he turned to look at the audience, the boy in the red flag jacket had disappeared, "That's all , people are gone.”

"Huh? What did you mean?" Erdemo finally realized that Elder Brother Twelve was interested in a person walking on the ice, "Which flag is it? When the time comes, I will ask Feng Sheng to check the list." alright."

"Erdemo is familiar with Fengshenger?" An unknown light flashed in Qi Yao's eyes, and he looked at Erdemo with a half-smile.

"It's just that I played better in Xian'an Palace." Erdemo replied neatly.

"Walk around with Eredenbao when I have time." Qi Yao was noncommittal, just like that, "Zheng Hongqi is still a child."

"The young boy who is facing the red flag?" Erdemo nodded, indicating that he had written it down, "forty people are not too many."

"It's fine if you can't find it, it's just a child left." Qi Yao's tone was light, as if he didn't care much.

"Yes." Erdemo suppressed a smile——Brother Twelve, did you say that... "It's just a child left"?Brother Twelve, have you forgotten that you are just a child?

"By the way, let Ri Yao always pay attention to Fu Kang'an's movements. Whenever he enters the palace, please invite him to come to the Lord." Qi Yao reminded as if he just remembered.

"Why not Fu Long'an?" Erdemo was a little puzzled, "Fu Long'an is the imperial guard, so the chance of entering the palace is much higher."

"Fu Long'an, he's 14 years old." Qi Yao glanced at him, "Speaking of it, he can be considered an adult."

"The servant understands..." Erdemo was startled suddenly—it turned out to be...as expected...Even if you live a new life, you can't justify these taboos in the palace ?

"Oh...no problem..." Qi Yao looked at Erdemo with a rare warmth in his gaze - just like the Queen Mother...
