Chapter 466
Secret Discord
"My concubine, I thank you very much for your concern. I am fine, but I have been very happy recently."
When Emperor Kangxi saw that Dai Guiren was not in good condition, he originally thought of calling the imperial doctor to come and take a look at her. However, seeing that Dai Guiren knew what he was thinking about, he gave up.
Dai Guiren is so haggard, but it is expected that this is a process and must be endured.
It's another holiday today, so it's not a good idea to call the imperial doctor early in the morning. The noble people around you are not ignorant of the importance. Now that I'm pregnant, I can't feel wronged anymore by myself and the child in my belly.
Emperor Kangxi felt relieved and raised his hand to avoid Dai Guiren's courtesy. He also told people not to adhere to these rules when they were pregnant. When the Laba porridge was served and the dishes were placed, Emperor Kangxi looked at her again.
Xiang Yuyan.
He was busy, and he hadn't seen Yu Lian for a long time. Unknowingly, Yu Lian was very pregnant, and he was cautious in his actions. Thanks to this little filial piety, he didn't have any trouble for her mother.
Looking at Yu Lian's bulging belly, Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation in his heart.
Counting the days, the baby will be born in April after a year. If she is like the fourth elder brother, she will probably have to postpone it for a while. However, if she is a child with an impatient personality, it is possible to give birth in March.
You have to think carefully about the date of returning to the palace like this, either leave after the new year has passed, or push it back a little later, wait until Yu Lian has given birth to the little one in her belly, and then return to the palace together after confinement.
Yu Lian and the child fell into the garden.
But before he could think about it, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager asked about the outside affairs again. Today, everyone is having a meal together during the festival, and there are no rules about not talking about food. Emperor Kangxi was serving dishes to Emperor Mama.
Back.
"Returning to Huang Mama, the situation outside is much better than before. Before the snowstorm came a few days ago, my grandson took people to look around. The people's houses have basically been repaired. Although they are not ready,
It’s a bit hasty, but it’s not difficult to get through this winter.”
"Repairs are also being carried out during the breaks when the snow stops. As long as it is not like the snow disaster in previous years, and the snow fell three feet deep in two days, it will be no big deal. It will not be open outside the city and everywhere in Zhili."
There will be less shortages, and the old grain will be enough to last the next autumn harvest. In addition, a batch of winter wheat will mature in the spring, so people will definitely not starve to death."
The eldest brother can indeed eat. He has not only grown taller but also gained weight this year. Maybe he has been working hard on riding and shooting every day. The meat looks very solid. Now it is wrapped thickly and looks very strong. A little bit.
Doesn't look puffy.
The grandparents and grandson decided on the New Year celebrations in just a few words, but Concubine Xi couldn't handle it. The Empress Dowager looked at Concubine Tong Jia next to her and saw that she was quite popular.
Then he pulled out Concubine Tong Jia and appointed Concubine Xi. Yu Yan and Duan Concubine helped her together.
"My son has grown up too, so it's no problem to use two more bowls!"
Emperor Kangxi nodded: "Huang Mama and her grandson have thought of the same thing. The grandson also thought that this year's New Year should be simple. It's really not lavish. In previous years, the Eight Banners were rewarded. This year is special, the grandson thought.
It is better to give blessings instead, and my grandson will spare a day's time to write and write, and the reward will be no worse than those gold and silver items."
However, compared to his hardship, the eldest brother was so eager to stand up and ask for help: "In the past, I only used one bowl, and I thought it was a rule, which made me come to Ukumama at this time every year."
If you go back hungry, you can buy more. I'll be shameless and beg for a bowl from Emperor Ama."
Emperor Kangxi joked and asked someone to serve half a bowl of eight-treasure porridge to Baocheng, telling Baocheng to eat more and hurry up to catch up with his eldest brother.
"It's just that we have to work hard to get back to before. This time the disaster was very widespread. Tens of thousands of houses collapsed. The loss in Beijing alone was more than 100,000 taels of silver, not to mention other things. My grandson only hopes for the army."
An early victory will save money on military expenses."
After saying these serious things and having them ready for use, Emperor Kangxi asked one by one about the situation of the children.
Baocheng thanked him hurriedly, but he could barely eat. After all, he was not very old. A bowl of thick and solid eight-treasure porridge with pastries and snacks was already the limit. It would be really difficult to use half a bowl more, but Huang Ama's
He couldn't refuse the kindness, so he had to swallow it slowly, spoonful after spoonful.
The prince is as calm as ever. He doesn't have to worry too much whether he is studying or riding and shooting. The eldest brother seems to be a lot more sensible. He is not as bold as before. He is also taller. Compared with the prince, he doesn't know what he is doing.
He felt a head taller than the prince.
If the blessing alone was still a bit weak, the Empress Dowager pondered for a while and ordered some humerus bones to reward some good items, while the others only gave blessings and meals.
She filled a bowl for Bao Qing. The Empress Dowager was afraid that Bao Cheng would not be enough, so she added another big spoonful for Bao Cheng. Poor Bao Cheng just managed to finish eating the bottom of the bowl, and the bowl in front of him was more than half full. The little child
He glanced at the eldest brother bitterly, his eyes were red with anger and he was about to cry.
The Empress Dowager nodded and couldn't help but sigh when she heard the words: "This winter is hard to endure. Those who have the spare capacity should give more help to the poor people. In a few days, the palace will donate again. It doesn't matter how much.
It’s a thought.”
"You kid, you usually have a lot of use for snacks and fruits, but you are polite today. How can the Aijia let you go back hungry when you come to the Aijia? There are not so many rules today. One person can buy two more
Three bowls are enough."
As soon as he asked for porridge, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager immediately pulled her eldest brother and felt sorry for her. She didn't have to wait for Emperor Kangxi to reward him with porridge again. The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager personally got up and filled a bowl for the eldest brother.
.
The eldest brother glanced at Baocheng provocatively, then took a pair of chopsticks and gave the prince a piece of ice-skin lotus seed paste cake and placed it on Baocheng's plate.
"Second brother, don't just drink porridge. Use some snacks to cushion your meal. Otherwise, you'll be hungry again within an hour or two and won't be able to meditate while studying."
The Empress Dowager is getting older, and her teeth are not as good as before. Apart from other things, the dim sum here is made with great care. Take this ice skin lotus paste cake for example. In order to have a better texture, it is softer and sweeter, and I don’t know the dim sum master.
How much extra sugar and oil was used and kneaded in little by little.
I won't like these greasy things much if I keep it. When I come to Ukumama, I won't even touch the thin-skinned and thick-filled snacks. But the elder brother acts under the banner of concern, so I won't.
I have to accompany my eldest brother to act out this brotherly love in front of Huang Ama.
It is an unreasonable disaster to say that the elder brother has always been inferior to him in studying. No matter what the adults say, the elder brother does not care, but a while ago, the master who taught riding and archery praised him in front of the elder brother.
Comprehension, this makes the eldest brother unhappy. He is not only in a weird mood all day long, but also disgusts people over some trivial things. It is really annoying.
