317, Rouge Tiger
After the weather was cold, there were a few more winter clothes in the list of Ningshou Palace.
This is obviously what the Queen Mother is doing for the concubines with her own example. The fourth master was very unhappy, and asked people to find out the winter case from a month ago to check whether they had mistreated the concubines of the East Sixth Palace.
In fact, there is no disadvantage, in fact, it is just a share, not much at all.
Li Wei was a little stunned when she saw the bill details, because she didn't feel that she admired the 'mothers' such as Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Hui. For example, in her case, there will never be only one piece of fabric of all kinds in the annual delivery. Whether it is woven gold, glitter satin, makeup satin, floral satin, etc., it is usually a color and a horse, or a pattern and a horse. Sometimes when the trick is good, I will give a few more horses.
In short, it will definitely not be enough, but she is worried about making too many new clothes every year, what if she can't wear them? There are also those who haven't been on last year and the year before last, and they have been sent away several times.
But according to the example in the palace, the concubine level is indeed this example. There are about 50 pieces of cloth a year, don't look too much, there are 30 pieces of coarse cloth and blue cloth that can't be put on the body. The rest can be made into clothes and upper body, and it should be divided into summer, winter, spring and autumn, underwear and so on.
There were only five or six horses of fabric that could be used to make winter clothes.
A mother, making clothes for a winter, why do you have to have three or five changes of clothes inside and out, right? At the time of the Chinese New Year, I had to see people every day, not to mention how many times a day I changed, but I had to change my body every day, right?
Therefore, although the fourth master did not deduct the concubines, the concubines really couldn't even live this New Year.
Ningshou Palace just made a move, whether it was looking at the past or making up for the fourth master, anyway, the Queen Mother wanted to make clothes, and the Internal Affairs Office would not say that your share was used up.
But the fourth master got up and circled back and forth in the house like a donkey locked in the circle.
"I didn't treat them badly! How many people in the palace can get by, but they can't? The more the fourth master spoke, the more angry he became, and he sat down angrily: "I have to estimate and repair a palace now, this side is paved with tiles, and the other side is trying to save money, and I don't dare to change the furniture." As a result, they went to Ningshou Palace to cry for a few clothes? What is the truth of this!! ”
Li Wei always kept her mouth shut when he was angry, she only wondered that now the fourth master was not sulking, and he would spill out happily when there was fire.
But she couldn't watch it from the side, and the fourth master said to her: "Tomorrow, you go and tell the Queen Mother, you can't get used to their stinky problems!" Don't make clothes for them! ”
Li Wei: This task is too arduous for the concubines to do.
Besides, long live, have you forgotten? When the news of Ningshou Palace reached your ears, the clothes were already ready. Can the Ministry of Internal Affairs be asked to take it back and demolish it again? Or do you want the Queen Mother not to have to send it out?
The fourth master's anger was not finished yet, and he said to her: "Su Su knows how to save, and I am worried if I can't wear out the clothes every year, and I also know that it is a pity to wear the clothes, even if I don't want the clothes over there, you have to take them back and wear them." ”
Li Wei blushed from praise.
He sat down and sighed: "A Baylor side Fujin knows the truth, but this group of concubines who are used to enjoying blessings don't know?" I don't believe it, they can't wear the clothes of previous years? I'm in trouble for the first year! ”
Li Wei also reacted, what the fourth master said was right. It is impossible for the concubines to have no clothes that have not been worn in previous years, and it is impossible for all the fabrics obtained in previous years to be made into clothes, and not a single haode has been saved.
In the first New Year after the fourth master ascended the throne, they really didn't seem to have a good heart when they were looking for something like this.
In the evening, she smoothed his hair for a night, and after returning to Yikun Palace the next day, she asked Zhao Quanbao to go to Ningshou Palace to deliver a message to see if the Queen Mother had time to see her.
Zhao Quanbao recognized a godfather in Ningshou Palace, and she knew about it, so she said at this time: "I have two pikan shoulders made for Banzai in previous years, you can take them to your godfather." ”
Zhao Quanbao was flattered and said: "How can you ask the master to break the bank?" A little thing, the slave usually doesn't respect him less......" he felt a pity.
Li Wei smiled: "Then one for you, one for your godfather, you pick first." Jade bottle, take your brother Zhao down. ”
Sure enough, this time Zhao Quanbao knelt down and kowtowed, and went with a thousand thanks.
Pikan shoulder is indeed made for the fourth master, but he doesn't like it. The lining of the lambskin is lined with blue satin and silver and silver. He didn't want to wear it because he thought it was dirty, and he pressed the bottom of the box from the moment he took it. Later, she sorted out her things and turned them out, but it was a pity, but it was too old-fashioned for Hongyu to wear them, so she had to keep it there.
Originally, I was going to bring it to Li Wenbi, but I thought it would be better to send clothes to the Li family so that they could do it by themselves, the fourth master is not as tall as Li Wenbi, and the dress may not fit.
What's more, as soon as it is said that it was made for the fourth master, it is simply inlaid with a layer of gold edge! That's the golden sign. Just like when she went to the thrift street and saw a second-hand donkey brand handbag, the person asked for 400 (now I think it should be a fake), but it felt like real leather, and she almost paid for it. I just want to think that even if it's second-hand, it's a famous brand.
The fourth master is like a famous brand, even if his things are worn, old, or unwanted, they are all good things.
She asked Zhao Quanbao to give gifts, and she also wanted to inquire about the meaning of the Queen Mother. This, the fourth master's request is too difficult to do. But he is the emperor, long live the lord, whatever he wants to do, no matter how reasonable he is, he has to do it.
Moreover, she felt that the concubines were not so innocent.
Zhao Quanbao came back soon and inquired quite clearly.
One day when the temperature plummeted, Concubine Yi, who had been sick all the time, was really sick. Probably because the quilt was too thin at night, and the charcoal for the winter had not yet been delivered, but the palace maid found that it was too cold in the house to light the brazier, so she had to temporarily find a thick quilt for Concubine Yi to change. I don't know if it's a matter of changing the quilt, anyway, Concubine Yi is really sick.
In the morning, when the Queen Mother had breakfast, Jingren Palace rushed to ask for a doctor. The Queen Mother asked people to see it, and came back to say that Concubine Yi was having a fever.
Since it's a real illness, there's nothing to say. Please come to the Imperial Doctor and prescribe medicine to cure the disease.
However, of course, the real illness is not as easy as the fake illness, and Concubine Yi is still seriously ill after using the medicine. A few days after a low-grade fever, he began to cough and spit out thick phlegm, and the high fever did not go away.
On the one hand, the Queen Mother asked Concubine Yi to treat her illness, and on the other hand, she gave several sisters in the East Sixth Palace a physical examination. Fortunately, only Concubine Yi was sick, but the word that came back was that most people said that this year's winter clothes were not enough......
Winter clothes start from the upper body, and few people wash them in winter, they all wear it through the winter and then disassemble and wash it in the spring.
So it's obviously strange that the winter clothes are not enough to wear, and the Queen Mother asked someone to check carefully, only to find that the winter clothes are made, and they are generally lacking. The cotton lining of the cotton clothes is slightly less. Fur cloaks and shoulders, etc., also have various problems such as thin hair, low hair, hair loss, etc., at a glance you know that this is a backlog of many years, preserved not haode old leather made of clothes, although it looks bright, but can not be put on the body.
The Queen Mother knows these tricks of the Internal Affairs Office. Among the concubines of the first emperor, there were originally a few favored, like those concubines, too nobles, etc., and eight or nine times out of ten they all suffered a secret loss.
The Queen Mother first asked people to find some of her old clothes and send them to them, but she couldn't let her family wear old clothes during the Chinese New Year, so she made a few new clothes for them from her own example.
There are antecedents and consequences. The Queen Mother really took great pains for the emperor. Zhao Quanbao was able to inquire about the matter so clearly, thanks to the Queen Mother's side, she also wanted to explain things clearly, so as not to misunderstand the fourth master.
…… It's a pity that the fourth master has misunderstood.
Li Wei just wanted to sigh. But I still went to Ningshou Palace, and I should go to visit the Queen Mother.
When the fourth master came back in the evening, he was also waiting for her explanation. She told the matter from beginning to end, the point was not that Concubine Yi and others were making trouble this time, but that the Queen Mother found that the concubines and nobles had been wronged.
"The Queen Mother also didn't want to bother you, so she used her own example." Li Wei tried to soften his words, but his fire was too big yesterday.
Is there too much to do during the Chinese New Year? Or is someone out there looking for trouble for him again?
The fourth master asked with a calm face: "Who are the people who don't do well in winter clothes?" ”
"Too noble cloth, too noble Yuan......" Li Wei counted them one by one, all of them had been unfavored in the harem of the first emperor for many years, but they have all survived until now, and they have all been posthumously sealed. As for those who haven't even been chased, no one cares about their winter clothes.
Let's just say that the Queen Mother's kindness is not indiscriminately spilled, and it is good for her to remember to care about those concubines and those who are too expensive.
The fourth master listened and counted at least two dozen names, and almost half of the people in the East Sixth Palace were named. It means that except for Concubine Yi, the remaining one has not been pulled down.
His face was immediately unspeakably dark.
But Li Wei was glad that this time he didn't get angry again, but held his breath back.
That's great.
When the fourth master holds his breath, it will be closer to the fourth master when he was in the mansion. That night, he wrote very calmly and went to bed. Even when she reads a book before going to bed, she is the same as before, and when she sees something interesting, he points it out to her.
Li Wei hurriedly leaned over to look at it, and saw that the paragraph he was referring to was: three or five round, one inch and one minute, four or eight mouths, and two inches of lips......
What's so nice about this? It seems that you are talking about the size and appearance of something?
Her gaze shifted to the right, and this chapter was called: The Wonderful Use of Dingqi Chapter.
Li Wei's brain supplement was instantly crooked to 108,000 miles away.
It turns out that the fourth master's bedtime reading is "Jindan Dayao", a book for cultivating immortals. Although this paragraph may really be talking about the furnace of alchemy, but ...... Is there any such thing as cultivating immortals?
She took this to ask the fourth master, at least the fourth master is currently learning orthodox immortal cultivation (?). ), not a YY novel.
"Picking?" The fourth master closed the book and looked at her, "Picking yin and supplementing yang?" ”
She nodded, looking at him expectantly.
"How did you remember to ask this?" He asked curiously.
In the middle of winter, the two of them were wrapped in quilts and lying on the bed, how suitable it was to talk about this kind of topic.
The fourth master thought about it, explained to her very seriously and seriously, and used an example she could understand: "Journey to the West".
He said that supplementation is not only to supplement yang with yin, but also to supplement yin with yang. For example, in Journey to the West, why did Tang Seng pestered him so many female monsters to eat him and marry him? It is because Elder Tang is an excellent pure yang body, the Buddha of the West Heaven came into the world, and the words Zheng and Qing are all accounted for, and the female monster has a spring breeze with him, and he has slept thousands of children and eight hundred outside.
Li Wei listened to the story he had to tell about the Tang Imperial Brother and the female monster, and listened to it with relish. Zuihou fell asleep directly.
When he got up the next morning, the fourth master had already gone to the front hall.
She went back to Yikun Palace, and in the afternoon, she heard that the fourth master called the eighth master early in the morning and scolded her.
Li Wei knew who he was going to with this evil fire.
But she also figured out one thing. In the past, the fourth master held back the fire and only sprinkled it on Su Peisheng and them, because they were all his minions.
Now the whole world is his minion.
So he scolds whoever he wants. scolded the eighth master, also because before the fourth master ascended the throne, the eighth master was in charge of the internal affairs government for several years.
After he finished scolding the eighth master, he rushed to erase the head of the Internal Affairs Office before the New Year and replaced them with two of his own. One of them is Li Wei's acquaintance, which is Ma Jia's husband, Fu Nai.
She also listened to Ma Jiashi's story, and when she said it, her whole body was bubbling with happiness, and her whole body was filled with the atmosphere of 'Long Live Longen, she wants to serve Long Live wholeheartedly'. In the past, Ma Jiashi was also sincerely serving her, but it has never felt so obvious today.
When Hongyu came over to say goodbye in the afternoon, he also quietly told her that Fu Chi had been very happy for the past few days.
To have this happy event before the Chinese New Year is definitely the most haode New Year's gift for the Fu family. Li Wei also took the opportunity to reward Ma Jia's with a lot of things and let her go home for a holiday. You don't have to come here during the Chinese New Year.
As a result, Ma Jiashi went home, sent everything back, and came back again, saying very seriously that the master couldn't do without people here, and she couldn't just take care of herself. No matter what Li Wei said, it was useless, she just insisted on continuing to stay in the palace to 'serve the master'.
Actually, it's really not good to leave Ma Jia's family.
The Chinese New Year is the busiest time in the palace, and the fourth master is also busy. He didn't have any free time these days, and after returning from the front hall, he continued to write the word Fu in the east five rooms.
Hongyu and others were also assigned the task of writing blessing characters, Li Wei wanted to say that she could also help write, but the fourth master said in a tone of 'go and play while obediently': "Okay, it's not bad if you write it and reward it." ”
Li Wei felt very embarrassed, but she couldn't help but write when she said that she wanted to write, so she had to write on this table every day, and she accompanied her to write on the table next to her.
Only then did she know that many of the blessing characters written by the emperor every year in the past were written by her sons. It's a pity that the fourth master's son is too few, and there are not enough points. This blessing word, he also insisted on writing it himself, no matter how bad it is, he must have the bloodline of the Aixin Jueluo family, I am afraid that Gu Yan and others have not been assigned writing tasks.
The thirteenth master was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, so the fourteenth master was arrested by Zhuang Ding, as well as the fifth master and the seventh master. Fifteen and sixteen were also asked to write blessing characters.
The third master wanted to write, so he deliberately took advantage of the fourth master to write the blessing word to ask for a meeting, and then asked for this errand and left happily.
Li Wei saw that the fourth master wrote well, and went out for a trip, and was in a good mood when she came back. She clearly remembered that she went out just now and heard that it was the third master who asked to see her, and he also darkened his face, why was he in a good mood for a while?
When did King Chengjun have such a way?
When the two of them finished writing and washed their hands and drank tea, the fourth master told her in a very satisfied tone that the third master had come to ask for the blessing to write the word blessing, which was quite a taste of 'I am satisfied'.
Except for these few people, there are no brothers left who can write blessings by the 'grace' of the fourth master.
Only then did Li Wei understand that it seemed like heavy work to her, and it was also a way for the fourth master to summon closeness. The people he chose to write the word blessing were all the people he liked.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the blessing character was finally sent.
Li Wei thought that Zuihou would stay up late for two days, but she heard Hongyu say that Hongxi and others, who had moved to Nansansuo, were also required to write blessing characters, compared to their Amas outside, these third generations of the royal family were lucky not to be treated by the fourth master in another case, and they were all treated equally.
After writing the word Fu, except for Hongxi, Hongsheng and others did not return home. What does the fourth master mean when he returns home, isn't he going to enter the palace before dawn every day? Why bother with the kids going back and forth? So simply stay in the palace and have a holiday after fifteen.
Moreover, there is no rest in the study room during the Chinese New Year.
It's okay when the masters are resting, I'll give it to you. I'll give you homework.
…… I really want to shed tears of sympathy for the little buddies.
In the blink of an eye, the first New Year of Yongzheng Dynasty arrived. From today on, it is the first year of Yongzheng.
God is very face-saving It is a sunny day, and there are no clouds.
A few days ago, it snowed well all day and night, and the entire Forbidden City was covered with snow.
Li Wei still had to go to Ningshou Palace before dawn, and then go to Kunning Palace to worship the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, and then go back to the palaces to celebrate alone.
Although the new emperor has a queen, the habits left behind in the past are still not so easy to break.
After Yongzheng Dynasty still knelt for a long time, each palace held a banquet alone.
Yikun Palace was so lively that it was almost overturned, and Li Wei didn't expect so many people to come. The most important thing is that Zhao Jia's family still entered the palace with such a big belly!
Li Wei's eyes widened when she saw her come in, and she hurriedly asked someone to help her go to the room on the side, and then called the Rentai Hospital to invite a little doctor to come over. lest she kneel out again with a big belly!
"Didn't you say you didn't have to come in?" Li Wei said.
There was still Mama Liu standing next to Zhao Jia's family, Li Wei wanted to say a few words about Mama Liu, but she also knew that she was afraid that she would not be able to persuade Zhao Jia's family.
"Don't blame Mama, I insisted on coming over." Zhao Jiashi said immediately.
Li Wei sighed softly: "I'm also worried about you." The thirteenth brother is not in Beijing, and you can't have an accident at home alone. ”
Zhao Jiashi held his stomach and said: "The emperor's grace is mighty, Yun Xiang can surpass all the brothers and Prince Feng in one breath, this is all good for us." How can we still be pampered and spoiled? If you treat us well, you don't know how to take proportions? ”
That's true. Zhao Jia's coming is much better than her obediently staying in the house to raise a baby. At least the impression score from the fourth master must be high.
It's just that...... This will inevitably lead to some separation.
Li Wei only felt that the fourth master was becoming more and more like the original emperor. The people below also dare not make a mistake, and they dare not say a word wrong. is obviously a close relative, but it is like a moat across the sky.
Zhao Jiashi took Li Wei's hand and said, "What's more, Niangniang also rewarded my mother, I thought about coming to Xiexie Niangniang no matter what." ”
Li Wei said: "As long as you and the child are good, thank me." ”
In the evening, Li Wei told the fourth master about Zhaojia's family and said, "I see that her belly is very scary, so I asked her not to come tomorrow." ”
The fourth master sighed: "Princess Yi has always been timid, doesn't this seem unkind?" ”
Li Wei didn't expect him to think like this, and wanted to say a few more words for Zhao Jia's family, but he asked Wang Chaoqing to take pen and ink and write a letter.
She had no choice but to grind ink and lay paper for him on the side, and when she looked up, she wrote: Kiss my brother Yunxiang......
Li Wei: ==
Look down, the fourth master just wrote that you worked hard outside, and the fourth brother knew that your hard work was all for errands, and I remembered it in my heart, and I would reward you when you came back. Although our brothers have not been together in this good year, but we appreciate this round of bright moon, and your and my hearts are connected together.
Li Wei: ==
The fourth master continued to write, don't worry about your family, I let the concubine take care of it. Your princess is pregnant with a child, the size is good, the concubine rewarded the grandmother, this grandmother has been waiting for the concubine to give birth to a child, my Erhe, Hongyun, Hongyun, Hongshi, Hongyu are all healthy and good, so your son will also land safely.
Li Wei feels that this paragraph is quite realistic.
The fourth master continued: When you come back, I will name your child, let him study with my children since he was a child, and in the future, his future will also be covered, and when he lands on the male general of the Fengpu country, the girl will be named the county lord.
Li Wei frowned slightly, will this reward be too big?
As a result, the fourth master diverged endlessly. His ending is: This country belongs to the Xinjueluo family, and it is also between me and your brother, I can have a good brother like you, and this country will definitely become more and more beautiful. Huang Ama saw it under the Nine Springs, and he will be happy for you.
Probably he felt that he wrote very movingly, so after writing and sealing it, he asked people to send it to the thirteenth master in an urgent way.
It's just that Li Wei thinks that the Thirteenth Master may be scared to death after receiving it......
Sure enough, a few days later, the thirteenth master also replied urgently with four hundred miles, first thanking the emperor, saying that he also felt the emperor's kindness outside, and the nine thousand miles of rivers and mountains were ecstatic to be ruled by a Ming monarch like the fourth master, and all the people in the places he passed through were cheering and crying with joy.
Li Wei: You two brothers are just as exaggerated.
Then the thirteenth master said that Jiangshan belonged to the fourth master, and he was the new monarch personally elected by the first emperor. He is a useless elder brother, the first emperor has always disliked him, he is useless, he is stupid, he is so stupid that he is bubbling, stupid out of the level.
Li Wei: ==
The thirteenth master said that it was the emperor who gave him a new life, and told him how stupid he was before, the fourth brother of the emperor has been taking care of him, without the guidance of the fourth brother, he is afraid that he will not know what kind of waste he has become. The fourth brother is his guiding light, life mentor, and a great character, he stands beside the fourth master, just like the light of fireflies and the moon, there is no comparison.
So long live your words really make the minions panic.
Zuihou Thirteenth Master said a lot of questions to his fourth brother, as if he had forgotten how to talk to people without the fourth brother. Write out what he said to everyone in the Cao family, the Li family, etc., and also write what he said, and then it is necessary to add a sentence 'The subordinate brother is blunt, I don't know if it's okay to say this, ask the imperial brother to correct'.
The fourth master replied to his questions with great pleasure, and the letter sent by the thirteenth master had a thick stack, and the fourth master replied with a thicker stack to him.
Throughout the New Year, the fourth master was trying his best to send guidance to the thirteenth master, even if the reply had not yet come, after he came back, he would have to write an abridgement with various notes from the south of the Yangtze River, and then speculate how the Cao family and the Li family would react, and what problems might the thirteenth master encounter?
He also came to ask Li Wei.
What can Li Wei say? She has watched a few episodes of Kangxi Weifu's private interview, and it seems that there is also content in this regard?
She said to sprinkle gold leaves into the Qiantang River (she still wanted to go there to fish for river mud for many years, maybe she could get gold), and buy words from the hands of officials (this seems to be Li Wei as an official?). The rest is power trading. Find a small nunnery and put a stunning little nun with a sad background in it.
The fourth master heard hahadaxiao and said, "Which drama book did you see this from?" Still in trouble? ”
Li Wei said in her heart that it was originally to make you smile.
Then he actually wrote this paragraph as a joke to the Thirteenth Master!! Also, my concubine is very worried, you will meet a confidante there, and when you come back, you will leave Zhaojia's family behind. But she is often so worried, often to the point of not thinking about tea and dinner, sitting sleepy and crying, I really don't know if women will be like this, sigh.
Sigh P!!
Don't you see if she's joking?!
And then she snatched the page! Forced him not to write like that!
The fourth master looked at her dumbfounded with a pen, and begged for mercy: "I don't write, I don't write." Then he shook his head and sighed, "It's really a rouge tiger." ”
The author has something to say: make it up, good night everyone, see you tomorrow
