Chapter 419 Audio
Changchun Garden, Shouxuan Palace, and West Warm Pavilion.
The Empress Dowager was sitting on the kang and was talking to several concubines about what to do tomorrow. When she heard a eunuch at the door: "Report to the Empress Dowager, Long live the emperor is here!"
With the news, Kangxi had raised his legs into the warm room.
Although this place is called the Warm Pavilion, the bamboo curtains are replaced with wherever you see it, which looks very refreshing and comfortable.
The concubines sitting on the soft stool on the ground stood up, and the queen mother smiled and said, "The emperor is here, and she is talking about going out tomorrow!"
Kangxi said, "My son, please be with the emperor!"
"An, An!" The Empress Dowager was in great enthusiasm and patted the edge of the kang and said, "Come on, sit up and talk. You are busy with state affairs all day long, and you are exhausted!"
When the concubines saw that the mother and son had their hands down as if they were in a green onion, they said good fortune. Kangxi waved his hand and signaled everyone to flatten them.
Kangxi's biological mother died early and had always had a deep relationship with his legitimate mother. He went to the kang to do it, looked carefully at the empress dowager's expression, and said, "I am really relieved to see that the emperor's mother looks good. The emperor's mother sent the buns yesterday, can I use it?"
The queen mother smiled and nodded, saying, "I used it, it's just right to eat it. It's not too sweet, but it's a good thing to melt, but this snack was something we didn't have in our palace before."
Kangxi said: "It was the prescription obtained by Xiao Shiliu, who made a special way to honor the emperor's mother. My son asked the imperial kitchen to make it. If the emperor's mother loved this, he would give the prescription to the tea kitchen as well."
"Little Sixteen!" The Empress Dowager glanced at Wang Concubine who was standing behind Concubine De and Concubine Yi, and said, "This little monkey hasn't seen him for several days. If he doesn't see him, the Ai family really feels deserted."
Kangxi said: "Xiao Shiliu followed Xiao Shiqi and two others and were sent to the Interior Office by his son. They are getting older and they always have to learn to do something."
The queen mother nodded with a smile and said, "I can't blame myself for not seeing him for several days. Before that, he was thinking about the fat boy and fat daughter who came to Ai's palace to talk about him. It can be seen that he is a father, like a baby."
After hearing this, Kangxi couldn't help feeling something and sighed: "I'm sorry for parents in the world. If I don't raise a child, I don't know the kindness of my parents. I hope that they can know that their kindness is hard to repay."
Seeing Kangxi like this, the Empress Dowager knew that he was probably thinking of the eldest prince, the second prince and the others. In recent years, because of the competition for the throne, those princes really made him, the hard work of being an ama.
The Empress Dowager pointed to the standing concubine Yi and said to Kangxi: "According to the fact that all parents in the world are all right, look at Yan Yatou and grandson, and I have all the time to think about snacks and food. I just talked about the delicious food in the Rehe River for a long time."
Concubine Yi's boudoir was named "Yanlai". Because she was only thirteen when she entered the palace, the empress dowager took good care of her. She gave birth to three princes, the fifth prince, the ninth prince and the eleventh prince. The eleventh prince died young, and the fifth prince was raised in the empress dowager's harem.
Since this happened, among the concubines in the harem, Concubine Yi visited the Empress Dowager's harem for many times. In addition, she was lively and spoke with brisk words, and the Empress Dowager has always been close to her. Therefore, although Concubine Yi is now fifty, the Empress Dowager still calls her like this.
When Concubine Yi saw the Queen Mother name her, she knew that she was talking on purpose, so she could not let Kangxi feel uncomfortable when she remembered her sons. She covered her mouth with a veil and smiled: "The Lord of Buddha said this, so I am ashamed of myself. Not to mention that I have a grandson, even if I have a great-grandson, I am still a little girl in front of Lord of Buddha, and I can only act coquettishly."
Suli usually shows her gentle appearance, but why is she so mean now? Are you afraid that Gali will jump over the wall and bite out the old things in Jiangnan?
Because Kangxi was prejudiced in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Eighth Prince was punishable. He was not very angry with Gali and others.
He thought for a while and said, "Galli committed suicide, and his wife also ordered her to die. Seerqi and Gandu were all killed and executed in the autumn. I will follow the advice."
Since the Emperor Kangxi personally decided, the two ministers could only follow the order and receive the order.
When they came out of Qingxi Bookstore, the two old ministers sighed. It seemed that they would not have to bear the blame...
*
Xicheng, Cao Mansion.
Although the Duke of Dong E clan, Zeng Shou, sent two mothers to pick him up yesterday, Jinghui did not go with them and remained at Cao's mansion.
First, because Chu Yu was a little unhappy and had a lot of picky diet, Jinghui wanted to do his best; second, Jueluo's family was in charge of the Ministry of Justice, and Jinghui was a little unbelievable to the Dong E family's clan members.
As early as the year before yesterday, the clan members had complained about Jueluo. Even though Jueluo was vegetarian and chanted Buddha's name, he rarely walked with his relatives and clan members, some unclean words still reached the old lady's ears.
I felt that Luo was both ashamed and angry, and was sick, so Jinghui was a little disliked by her relatives.
I woke up this morning, and after Cao Yong went to the yamen, Jinghui came to Wutongyuan to pay tribute. Seeing that Chu Yu had not yet gotten up, he said a few words to Xiyun.
Because he knew that Chu Yu had no appetite these two days and had difficulty eating, Jinghui asked Xiyan to lead him to the kitchen.
When Chu Yu got up and finished washing up, Jinghui had already packed up a few side dishes and brought them with her.
Although I was grateful for her kindness, I remembered that she still had injuries on her hands, Chu Yu couldn't help but frown and pulled her to the side of the kang. Looking at the broken skin on her palm, she felt very distressed and said, "Why do you have to do these things? This can't be touched by water. If there is a scar in the palm of your hand, wouldn't it be my fault?" As he said that, he called Xiyun to marry medicinal wine and Yunnan Baiyao, and wanted to apply medicine to Jinghui.
Jinghui waved her hand and said, "My cousin, my sister is fine, I don't need medicine to save the smell of cooking. My cousin should use some things first! After all, I have two bodies, so I can't eat less food!"
After a while, the food was placed on the kang table. When Chu Yu saw it, she was the one she liked when she was pregnant with Tianyou, and she couldn't help but have a big appetite.
"Since that's the case, I will accept my sister's affection!" Chu Yu smiled and picked up the chopsticks. Seeing that there were only one pair, he said to Xiyun: "Pick up the pair of ivory chopsticks you usually have to use!"
Xiyun answered and Chu Yu personally handed it to Jinghui and said, "It's no fun to eat alone, so my sister will accompany me for two! I've seen you cleared in the past two days, and the days will be long in the future. No matter what, you must be firm and keep it from worrying about the old lady."
When Jinghui heard Chu Yu mention her grandmother, she couldn't help but turn red in her eyes, took the chopsticks, and nodded.
Xiyun approached and served the rice for the two of them. Chu Yu picked up a bite of the dish and delivered it to his mouth. He felt refreshed, but there was no smell of oily smell every day, which was very suitable for his appetite.
Jinghui saw Chu Yu eating deliciously, and her face looked a little more smiling.
She always remembered the great kindness of the Cao family, but she really didn't know how to repay it. After all, she was just an orphan without fathers and brothers, and she had no father and brother to stand up for herself.
Jinghui was very happy to do her best when Chu Yu needed it. Thinking of her grandmother in the yamen, her smile seemed a little bitter.
Although I won’t be hungry, when I encounter such a thing, how can the old man have the heart to eat? After all, I am eighty. What if something is wrong...
When Jinghui thought of this, she couldn't help but shudder, and she couldn't describe the sorrow in her heart. In this world, the only person she could rely on was her grandmother. If she was the only one left, it would be like the sky and the earth would be collapsed and she could not imagine it.
When Chu Yu saw Jinghui lowered her head and did not move her chopsticks, she said, "You can eat it too. My sister's cooking skills are really nothing to say. You have to help my sister-in-law record these recipes. When I get better, I will make them for your cousin to eat, and he will definitely like them."
When Jinghui saw her cousin's wife mentioning her cousin, she looked like a childish look, and she was really a pity for others. She smiled and ate half a bowl of rice with her.
Chu Yu ate, turned around and looked at the clock on the ground. It was almost noon. Why is Cao Song so quiet and didn't show up all morning. He came back yesterday, and he is not in a hurry now?
I thought about Cao Song's arm again. Although he had hired the imperial physician to see him yesterday, it was not a problem, but looking at the bloody appearance was scary enough. Therefore, she said to Xiyun: "Follow carefully in the cabinet in the east room, remember that there was originally a discontinuous ointment at home, so I found it to send it to the second master. It would be a big deal if he was injured.
Xiyun asked, "Prince, is it the box on the top of the kang cabinet? I trance remembered that it was placed there. I was in the drawer under the cabinet earlier. I was afraid that the fifth and fourth girls were naughty, so I found it to be on it. I will go and take a look."
