The peeled sweet potatoes are placed on a plate, and the red color is attractive, and the aroma of sweet potatoes comes to the nose. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The emperor put a little bit in his mouth with chopsticks, and then smiled: "It's really delicious!" ”
However, the emperor has always been restrained and did not eat too much, and the last half was all fed to Prince Zhao.
The emperor touched the belly of the little prince Zhao, and said with a smile: "It's a drum, it seems that Zhao'er doesn't have to eat dinner tonight." ”
Prince Zhao Xiao looked up while eating sweet potatoes, and smiled at the emperor with bright eyes.
The Emperor then asked, "I saw that you were having a good time just now, what were you talking about?" ”
Lin Yan glanced at Concubine Hu Shufei and Wang Zhaorong with a smile, and then said with a smile: "It's nothing, it means that Er and Li'er have grown up." ”
The emperor glanced at the fourth prince, who was already handsome and tall, and the second princess, who was already slim, "um", nodded, and said, "Ming'er and Li'er have indeed grown up." ”
Then the emperor also remembered the question of the relationship between the fourth prince and the second princess.
When it was time to rest in the evening, the emperor came out of the shower and changed clothes, and said to Lin Yan: "Ming'er and Li'er's family affairs should also be considered, you should spend more time on weekdays and see if there are suitable candidates." ”
Lin Yan was sitting on the edge of the bed watching the bed roll around, crawling from one side of the bed to the other side for a while, and then turning over two little princes who fought to the other side.
After winter, Prince Zhao refused to sleep in the warm pavilion with the nurse, but stuck to Lin Yan and the emperor. The little prince of Zhao has a big temper, and if he doesn't meet his wishes, he can ignore you for three days, so Lin Yan will let him go.
Lin Yan stroked her hair bun and said: "The princess of the fourth prince, the concubine can often bring the female dependents into the palace to take a look and pick one, but it is the second princess's concubine, whether the young master is good or not, the emperor still has to send someone to inquire in person." ”
The emperor didn't say anything, walked to the side of the bed and sat on the bed with Lin Yan, looked at the little prince Zhao who was happy inside, and asked, "What do you think of Xu Min, the eldest son of the prince of Xinguo?" ”
Lin Yanqi asked, "What, do you want Xu Min's eldest son, Princess Shang'er?" Without waiting for the emperor to answer, he continued: "The family style of the Xinguo Mansion is still good, and the children of the clan are also promising. ”
The emperor said: "On that day, the Duke of Xinguo brought his little grandson into the palace, but I just glanced at him, and felt that the child was good-looking, and he was polite and appropriate. He added: "You don't necessarily have to marry Li'er to him, the royal princess doesn't have to worry about marrying, and she also has to look at other people." ”
In this way, the emperor was still satisfied with the child.
Lin Yan's mind turned around for a while, and then said to the emperor: "Since this is the case, then I will have someone send a message to the Duchess of Xinguo tomorrow, so that the Duchess of Xinguo can teach the eldest man of the Xu family well." ”
The Emperor listened and nodded.
Lin Yan then said: "The concubines look at the princess candidates of the four princes, and Concubine Hu Shu is the niece of her mother's family. ”
The emperor listened and said: "The Hu family is also loyal, Hu Jiong is now a book, if the concubine wants to make the daughter of the Hu family the princess of Ming'er, it is not impossible." ”
Lin Yan smiled when she heard this: "But the concubine really wanted to hear about it, but the Qi family refused." ”
The emperor frowned when he heard this, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why is this, is my son not worthy of the girl of her Hu family." ”
Lin Yan said: "Who dares to dislike the emperor's son, it's just that the Qi family feels that the royal personnel are complicated and doesn't want the girl to marry into the royal troubled waters." Qi's own marriage was not smooth back then, and it is understandable that he wants his daughter to marry into a simpler family. ”
However, Lin Yan heard about something, Xiao Cheng, that fool, went to the Hu family and said that he wanted to form a family with the Qi family. As a result, when I went back, I was beaten by An Niang again, and I was punished with a washboard that I knelt for three nights.
Back then, the emperor rewarded the title of a county king in the Qinghe Palace, and now this title has been inherited by Xiao Cheng. But now the county king's mansion is all in charge of An Niang, Xiao Cheng wants to spend 1,000 taels of silver to buy a pair of ink treasures, and he has to go through An Niang's nod to withdraw the silver from the account room.
The emperor didn't speak again, then took Lin Yan's hand and said, "Rest." ”
Then the little prince Zhao, who was rolling on the bed, was hugged and laid, and then the two fell asleep together, and the little prince Zhao was placed in the middle.
Prince Zhao looked left and right at the queen mother and father, smiled, then closed his eyes and fell asleep in seconds.
It's a new year in the blink of an eye.
There are too many things that have happened in the court this year, the emperor has investigated corruption and raided the homes of many ministers, and some people in the court have been panicked and turbulent in a year, and the relatives of the various provinces are also frightened.
In order to appease the hearts of the ministers and the internal and external women, Lin Yan made this year's Spring Festival extraordinarily grand, and the rewards in the minister's family were two percent thicker than in previous years.
But this year's New Year, compared with previous years, is indeed a bit different.
In recent years, the scenery of the Zhongshan Hou Mansion has completely become the dust of history, Xuan He can be compared with the Wuguo Mansion for a while, and now the sunset of the Xuanguo Mansion, the Wuguo Mansion, the Yue Guo Mansion, the Xinguo Mansion These people are as good as ever, and Zhao Rin and Xu Xiao are gradually revealed in the center of the court, and Wang Xie Li These century-old families are still profound.
Sometimes even Lin Yan can't help but sigh at the impermanence of the world.
After the New Year, spring blossoms.
After last year's emperor's wanton purge of the court caused many people to be implicated, this year's spring seems to be a little thriving after thousands of trees and dead trees, and the marriage and housewarming have gradually recovered, and the capital is lively for a while.
But after last year's Great Purge, the officialdom is indeed a lot more upright, as can be seen from the people who gave gifts to the Lin family on the New Year.
Before the Spring Festival, Zhuang's said to Lin Yan: "Compared with previous years, the gifts given to the Guogong Mansion this year are less than one-tenth." Then he was relaxed again, and said with a sigh of relief: "That's fine, otherwise you have to rack your brains to think about how to return the gift, but now it's easy." ”
In previous years, in order to avoid offending people, the gift will not be returned directly if it is not moved, but in order to avoid being soft, it is necessary to prepare something of equal value as a return gift, so the annual return gift is a headache.
And when the snow began to melt in early February, Lin Wan also received news that she was pregnant again, and she had passed a three-month stable period.
Mu Zhi was also very happy when he heard this, and said, "This is really a great joy, if only Miss Six could give birth to a little boy this time." ”
After speaking, he went with Mu Qing to prepare the reward for Lin Wan. (To be continued.) )
