Chapter 307: Reward
Five hundred taels of gold!
Yi Ling and Tai Yi Cheng looked at each other, and both of them read the incredulity in each other's eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info They heard it right!
Oh gold! Or five hundred taels per person! Not a total of five hundred taels! Five hundred miles of gold!
Rao is Taiyi Ling and Taiyi Cheng are also people who have seen the world in the palace, and they were also surprised for a long time when they heard this. After reacting slightly, he knelt down in a panic and thanked him, both of them were overjoyed, never expecting that His Majesty would be so generously rewarded.
Not to mention that the two imperial doctors were so ecstatic, even everyone in the palace was also taken aback by His Majesty's generosity, and their eyes were wide and wide-eyed.
What is the concept of 500 gold? Later generations were bewitched by the TV series, and saw that the young masters and young ladies would often reward people with a hundred taels of silver, thinking that even ancient money was not worth anything, and it was all blown by the wind.
But in fact, many people have lived a lifetime, let alone gold, and even silver has never been seen.
The conversion of gold in the "Historical Records" is clearly written: "The Han Dynasty took one pound of gold as one gold, and it was 10,000 yuan." β
Qian is the monetary unit of the Han Dynasty, a thousand coins are called consistent, a catty of gold is worth ten guan, that is, a catty of gold is equal to 10,000 copper coins.
In the Qin and Han dynasties, one catty was sixteen taels, and one tael was twenty-four baht.
Converted, that is, the imperial physician ordered the same imperial physician to get 312,500 yuan each.
If this is just an empty number, so that people have no concept of value, then substitute it for the price of goods when entering the Han Dynasty.
After the ancients became famous, they were always keen to buy land. In the Han Dynasty, the price of one mu of fertile land was neither high nor low, and it should be about 2,000 yuan per mu.
Therefore, the five hundred taels of gold that the two men took could buy a hundred acres of fertile land, and there was still a lot left.
If it is not shocking enough, then the people take food as the sky, and then talk about the food that ordinary people are most concerned about, and look at it by conversion.
At that time, the salaries of court officials could also be used as a unit of grain. For example, the three princes who are high and powerful, above 10,000 people and under 10,000 people, have an annual grain of about 10,000 stones, and a salary of about 800,000 yuan a year.
How much is a stone of grain worth that?
When Wenjing, the world was peaceful, and Su was more than ten dollars.
And when there is a shortage of wars and wars, food will naturally be extra valuable, more than ten times.
During the time of Emperor Wu, although he was conquest for many years, it was the Xiongnu who fought in the end. Even if prices rise wildly, they will not be too much.
Let's take it as a fivefold increase, that is, fifty dollars for one stone of grain. The five hundred taels of gold can buy 6,250 stone of grain, which is already three and a half years' worth of grain, or five months' money.
It should also be noted that gold is never depreciated, it never depreciates, and its brilliance and value are permanent.
So five hundred taels of gold is really a big reward!
It's no wonder that the Imperial Physician Ling and the Imperial Physician Cheng were overjoyed, and Chun Tuo was even more distressed when he heard this, as if he had chopped his flesh. The heart said that this queen twins is not the credit of the two of them, as for such a big deal?
After Liu Che added another sentence, he rewarded the whole hall of the greenhouse. Even if Chuntuo has his share, it hurts.
But complaining is complaining, Chuntuo thinks that His Majesty can get two imperial heirs at once, this is really a great blessing!
Thinking like this, he was much happier, and immediately carried out Liu Che's order to the letter, and went to Shaofu to spend 1,000 taels of gold to reward Taiyi Ling and Taiyi Cheng.
Each person has five hundred taels of yellow and clear gold, which is more than 30 catties, and it can blind people's eyes.
The good news of the queen's twin lives and the news that His Majesty was rewarded with a thousand taels of gold in ecstasy, but in one night, it spread throughout Chang'an City like wings.
The people in the harem bit their silver teeth and hated why the queen was so lucky.
The people were overjoyed and amazed.
Twins are rare, and it is even more rare for the royal family to have twins, and there are even rumors among the people that this is a son sent by Gaozu.
After the courtiers of the clan were shocked, in addition to lamenting the queen's large payment, most of them thought that the news of the reward of a thousand taels of gold was probably false.
After figuring out whether it was groundless, even the most stupid and unclear ones realized the weight of the queen in His Majesty's heart more clearly.
At this time, everyone knows that according to His Majesty's preference and the queen's status as the queen, even though His Majesty already has two princes under his knees. But the ownership of the crown prince, the so-called succession first, there is no suspense.
The queen's twin children, if they are double dragons, one of them will be the crown prince in the future; If it is a dragon and a phoenix, the prince must be the crown prince; If it is a double phoenix, it will also be the two most noble princesses of the empire.
At this time, I thought that the next few decades would change, and everything was still unknown. I only hate that I didn't get along with Princess Guantao's mansion at the beginning, so that now I almost can't get along with the queen.
The Tangyi Marquis Mansion was full of traffic for a while, and the nearby streets were blocked. It's really loud and lively. The endless stream of visitors forced Princess Guantao to avoid the mansion and enter the palace directly.
When she arrived, it was already afternoon, but Gillian hadn't gotten up yet.
Guan Tao heard that Gillian had not woken up yet, so he rested and waited in the hall. The Han Palace is where she grew up, and she has always been very self-conscious.
Gillian fell asleep when it was dawn.
Liu Che couldn't sleep all night last night when he was excited, and he kept tossing and turning. From time to time, I couldn't suppress my excitement and kissed Gillian on her forehead. Gillian was still in a daze, and he was carefully touching her stomach like touching porcelain, while muttering something in small pieces.
In this way, even if Gillian slept deeply, she was disturbed by him and woke up countless times.
Every time he saw Gillian wake up, he would regretfully promise that he would never quarrel with her again.
But later, Gillian still heard his whispering voice in the dark night.
Seeing him ecstatic like this, Gillian also laughed and couldn't sleep for a long time.
When it was just dawn, Liu Che, who had not slept all night, got off the bed lightly, put on his shoes and went out. Gillian couldn't help but think, and she didn't know why he was going so early?
But finally, after he left, the hall was clean, and Gillian could sleep quietly.
She was so tired, she was so tired.
Gillian slept until Shen Shi woke up leisurely, but she was still really hungry and couldn't wake up.
Originally, according to Gillian's idea that she would not be hungry when she fell asleep before, she could still sleep. But thinking that he is now eating with three people, he must not go hungry casually.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and tried to wake herself up. With a bit of laziness calling Begonia, "Begonia-"
Haitang immediately responded outside, pushed the door in with Xue Wu and Yulan, and served Gillian to get up and change her clothes.
Gillian's feet are swollen, her back has been sore, and she has a big belly. It's hard for her to get up now, so she doesn't bother to move, waiting for Begonia and Magnolia to come in and help her get up and put on her shoes.
The snow dance pulled up the curtain with a clatter, and the bright and warm sunlight immediately passed through the pane and scattered countless golden spots on the carpet.
A row of peony flowers under the window is still purple and red, and the sun shines on the flowers, such as bathing in golden light, beautiful and incomprehensible.
Gillian looked at the peony flower with a little sleepiness, and absentmindedly helped her put on her shoes by Yulan half-squatting.
Suddenly, Haitang smiled and said, "Queen, the eldest princess has been here for a long time, and you are finally up." β
Yes? Pavilion pottery?
Gillian's sleepiness immediately went a little, "Why don't you call me?" β
Guan Tao must have heard about the twins, and entered the palace with joy.
In the end, she has been through a lot, and she really got her right.
Haitang came over with her hot clothes, "The eldest princess won't let us call you, besides, the eldest princess is at ease here, don't worry." β
This is true, Guantao is surnamed Liu, a real heavenly family, and she is more comfortable here than the Tangyi Hou Mansion.
Gillian was supported by Yulan and Xue Wu to get up and began to change her clothes.
In March, the weather is much warmer, but Gillian is still very cold. The imperial doctor ordered that it was normal for pregnant people to be afraid of the cold, and that the carpet and the earth dragon had not yet been removed.
After a simple wash and makeup, and after ordering a few dishes at random, Gillian went out happily to find the pottery.
Pavilion Tao was leaning comfortably against the window, and turned his head when he heard the sound of footsteps. She wore a Lingyun bun, and her hair was high and fluffy. Four jade hostas prop up the bun, and dotted emerald inlaid gems and colorful butterfly flowers are inserted into the bun. The willow eyebrows drawn by Luo Zidai have wide and light eyebrows, and the tips of the eyebrows are upturned. With the light touch of the lips, it is really graceful and luxurious, and it is radiant.
The sunlight lit up half of her face, and her aura became more and more powerful.
Even if she softened, in the end, she still faintly carried the scenery of discussing politics with the empress dowager when the former emperor was there.
Even if the pavilion is old, it is no longer the bright and charming appearance in Gillian's memory. But the precipitation of the years has brought her a more calm and atmospheric beauty.
When she saw Gillian, she smiled and beckoned her over. "Jiaojiao, my mother just said yes, you don't believe it. This really makes my mother right, twins! Your father has been grinding all night when he was happy, saying that it must be a dragon and phoenix fetus, and then saying that it is still rare to recruit sisters. β
Gillian paced up to her and said with a smile: "Your Majesty didn't sleep all night last night, so I didn't sleep until early in the morning." You're calling my dad to come in again? β
Guan Tao frowned immediately, opened his mouth and said, "What do you mean by rushing?" You were raised by me, and it was as if I didn't want to come in and see you. β
Gillian smiled slightly, and immediately changed her words: "Yes, I said it wrong, I said it wrong." You missed me and came in. β
Guan Tao smiled slightly, pointed at Gillian and said, "This time, you drove me in - as soon as the news of twins came out in this palace, the house was about to be flattened." Some people can't be stopped. I can't help it, I'll come to the palace. Who has the guts to bother you? β
Gillian smiled, "And the people you have to meet?" β
Guan Tao stretched out his finger and lightly touched her forehead, "Don't laugh at your mother, those clans, can your mother still offend?" β
The window was open, but there was no wind, and the sun was shining warmly.
Gillian still felt a little cold, and unconsciously tightened the brocade fur on her body.
When Guan Tao saw it, he went to close the window, but suddenly his tone was a little excited. "Ahh
Immediately outside the window, the neighing of horses and the clatter of running sounded, and soon the snow lion's usual coquettish "chirp" sound sounded under the window.
Xiao Dongzi ran after him, and when he saw that the eldest princess and the queen had bowed, they retreated to the bottom of the porch, and played in front of them by the snow lions.
Pavilion Tao loves the house and Wu, and I like Gillian's fruit very much. Every time she comes, she has to feed it a bunch of snacks, and the snow lion likes what she likes.
Gillian also went to the window and stuck out her head to look at the snow lion, and when the pony saw her, she became more and more happy, and kicked her four hooves on the spot. The long snow-white hair fluttering in the sun, and with those short legs, it is really cute.
Guan Tao immediately turned around and asked someone to bring her the snacks that the horse ate to feed the snow lion, and the snow lion leaned his neck under the window, and was very happy.
Gillian shook her head and laughed, obviously there was no shortage of it to eat and drink, and she always deliberately made people so happy in front of people. No wonder several begonias say that it is aura.
Suddenly, a thick cloak landed gently on Gillian's shoulder. Gillian grabbed the cloak with both hands, looked back, and Begonia smiled at her lightly and stepped aside.
The spring time always gives people an extraordinarily bright and soft feeling, with the willow trees made of green in the courtyard and a few spring swallows flying by.
The white magnolia, the weeping silk begonia, the dendrobium safflower, and the chandelier Fusang planted by Sifu are all open, and it is really warm and splendid to look at the past, and it is even more pleasant to look at it under the bright sun.
Gillian tightened her cloak and watched with a smile on her face as Guantao fed the snow lions.
Two quarters of an hour later, Magnolia came in softly and said that the meal was ready.
Gillian woke up hungry, and when she heard this, she naturally pulled her legs and left.
Guantao also sprinkled the sugar cube in his hand on the ground in one go, and said cheerfully: "Snow Lion, eat it quickly." She also went to the side hall with Gillian.
After Gillian sat down, she asked if she wanted to use it, and I heard that she didn't want to use it. There are no two words, don't wait for the eunuchs, pick up the long chopsticks and eat the vegetables.
Guan Tao saw that she was really hungry, and she was distressed. I just looked at her and didn't speak, for fear of disturbing her, and from time to time I picked up chopsticks to clip what she liked to eat for Gillian.
When Gillian used two bowls of rice and drank another bowl of soup, she put down her chopsticks with satisfaction. Guan Tao also persuaded: "You just eat so much, how can you do it?" You're eating with three mouths now, and then you're eating one bowl. β
Gillian smiled, she remembered that Guantao still thought she ate too much in the first month, and now when she heard that it was the twins, she immediately said that she ate less. "Mother, I'm really full."
"Okay, then let's get up and take a walk, take a break, and move." Guan Tao personally came up to help Gillian walk in the hall, and repeatedly instructed her to be more active when she was sober.
The two mothers and daughters walked slowly in the hall for more than half an hour, and the pavilion Tao himself was tired, so he sat down and said something homely.
Guan Tao looked at her bulging belly, full of joy. "Tomorrow I have to go to Baling with your father to talk to the two elders about the good news. When your grandfather was alive, he said that you were smart and clear, and that it was not good to like what you liked. Not to mention your grandmother, who favors you the most. You said that if your grandmother was there, she would be absolutely happy to see that you could conceive twinsβ"
By the end, she almost choked up.
Gillian remembered her grandmother who had been gone for many years, and she also missed it, and she also had a lot of sorrow in her heart. She held Guan Tao's hand and comforted: "Mother, say hello to my grandfather and grandmother on behalf of Jiaojiao." If it weren't for my big belly, Your Majesty wouldn't have worried about me going, and I really had to go with you to see the two of them. β
