"This box is for the princes, princesses and concubines to play with." Fu Jin deliberately mentioned Cher.

Only then did the Queen Mother remember: "Quick, Su Mo'er, you go to the study and invite the two princes and a few little princesses over." "The Queen Mother is very shrewd and has a quick brain response: knowing that Fujin misses her children very much, she quickly found them. After the ceremony, the Queen Mother patted Xue'er on the back lovingly and said, "Go and see Amma." ”

Xue'er came to the prince, gave a salute, and timidly greeted the prince: "Ama auspicious!" ”

The prince held his daughter on his lap and felt hot. But I still have to smile: "What did the Queen Mother give Xue'er to eat, she has grown a lot taller in the past six months." ”

"Ama, where did you and Xiao Eniang go? Why don't you come back when you're old? The big lady wants to cry when she misses you. ”

Fu Jin blushed: "You just talk nonsense." ”

The emperor said: "It must be true, Tong Yan is unscrupulous, this is the embodiment of your deep affection." ”

The Queen Mother's eyes looked at the prince, deep and sharp. The tone was very kind, and there was no suspicion at all, just a little reproach: "Yes, Lord Rui should bring a letter back, so as not to worry about Xiu'er." "This is very normal, but it is normal to have a murderous intent, it depends on how you dodge this blade. The prince can't flicker at all, he can only face it directly.

So, the prince smiled: "The place where the minister went traveled far away, and there was no reliable person over there to bring the letter." ”

The emperor and the queen mother let out a surprised voice almost at the same time: "Oh! So far? ”

The emperor hurriedly asked, "Brother Huang, what kind of place are you going?" ”

"Back to the emperor, it is no longer part of the borders of the Qing Dynasty, it is another country."

The emperor's interest came up at once: "Can you elaborate on it?" For example, what direction? How many miles? Do you take the dry road or the water road? ”

The prince knew that he couldn't avoid it, although he had a knife hanging over his head, he couldn't have the slightest fear:

"We followed the master on a boat, and the minister is usually not too sensitive to the direction, so it should be west, right? If you want to say that the distance is far, I am afraid it is more than 10,000 miles away. ”

The emperor wanted to ask something, but the queen mother interrupted and said: "Since it is a cloud tour, it can't be too close." The emperor also heard that the emperor said that the master of Lord Rui, that is, Master Ganlin, who was a monk of the Tao, probably took Lord Rui to the fairy world. There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

"Is that so? Brother Huang? Is that really the case? "It's good that the queen mother interrupted, and this time the emperor's interest is even stronger.

The prince said with a smile: "The place that Master took us to is not the fairy world, it is a country very similar to our Daqing, regardless of people's skin color, language, and writing, it is very close to our Daqing. Master said that that country and the big country of the Central Plains were originally the same ancestor, but they took different paths in the process of development. ”

The Queen Mother smiled: "This palace thought that you went to the abbot, Penglai, and Yingzhou overseas immortal mountains mentioned in "Journey to the West". ”

The prince said: "The place where the minister went is far inferior to the Immortal Mountain Qiongge. ”

At this moment, the third prince was very anxious to look at the gifts in the box, and pulled his companion Bing'er to look into the box. On the top of this box are toys for princes and princesses. Children are not interested in adult conversations, but are interested in interesting things. The second prince Fuquan, who was only one year older than Xuan Ye, was a little taller than Xuan Ye, and he could see the contents of the box, but he didn't dare to take it if he wanted to, and he was so anxious that he jumped to his feet. The prince pointed to a very beautiful boy and said, "This child must be Bing'er?" ”

Bing'er stepped forward generously and gave a bow to the prince: "Since the student is Bing'er, you are auspicious." "Amused everybody. The prince pulled him into his arms, and then pulled the third prince into his arms, "Xue'er, the three of you are the same age, you have to study and play well together." Fujin, take out the things you eat and play with, and give them to the Queen Mother and the children to taste. Come, the second prince, the princesses, all come here. ”

The prince took out the toys in the box for the children, and the princes, including Bing'er, were a big bag of toys for everyone, and most of them were of plastic quality. Among them, there are Barbie plastic three-dimensional puzzles, beach toys (plastic buckets, plastic shovels, shovels, cars, etc.), plastic combination building blocks, cartoon paper puzzles, rabbit bags, sand windmills, baby rattles, vinyl ducks, stuffed bears, ragdoll monkeys, inflatable jumping horses, iron mechanical animals and little fat pigs. The eldest sister is not allowed to bring electronic toys. Like self-running cars, clattering machine guns, and transformers, these things are easy to cause criticism, and they are too far from the ideology of the Qing people. The gifts for the princesses were a large stuffed animal, a set of beach toys, a bunny bag, and a Barbie doll with beautiful big eyes, double eyelids, black hair, pigtails, and a gauze skirt, which would close its eyes when lying down and cry when it shook it. Several little princesses liked to chirp, and they all came to thank the prince: "Thank you, Uncle Huang!" ”

The princes' toys are plastic building blocks, cartoon puzzles, sand windmills, ragdoll monkeys, jumping horses and iron machinery, and little fat pigs. Like baby rattles and gum ducks, they belong to the younger princes and princesses.

Xue'er liked to hold a large bag of toys tightly in her arms, and said again and again: "Thank you Amma, thank you Eniang!" ”

The dolls of Cher's time were still made by hand, and no matter how good the needlework was, it could not be compared with that made by machines. Moreover, the face, hands and feet of the exotic doll are all soft plastic, and the color and elasticity are very similar to the skin of a real person, so the doll is similar to a real child. Caixia hugged the fluffy bear, liked to stick her face to the bear, and the rainbow was full of flutter and held it high.

Fu Jin said to Xue'er: "Baby, this is a gift brought back to you by your little mother!" ”

"Thank you, little lady!"

The third prince brought one of his gifts to the prince: "Uncle Huang, this little monkey is so good-looking, this little thing is like a key on a Western clock." ”

The prince told him, "This is the key to the monkey's strength." There is a keyhole behind the monkey, so you can twist it a few times with the key and put it on the ground, you see......"

The little monkey began to somersault, one after the other, for a long time. The children applauded and danced with joy. The second prince's tin toy is a frog, which can jump up to the height. Bing'er got a little mouse, and although she couldn't jump or somersault, she squeaked all over the ground. These toys are characterized by very clean and showy features, which are in line with children's aesthetic views.

Suddenly, there was a "meow" outside the window, and a snow-white Persian cat jumped in and pounced on the tin mouse. Who knew that this mouse was not afraid of cats at all, so he ran unhurriedly for a while, and then got under the small cabinet, and the Persian cat was a little fatter, and his body was not so flexible, so he directly hit the cabinet, causing everyone to laugh.

None of the children's toys given to the princes by the prince were with batteries. If it does, it will become the ruler's private property, and maybe you will be able to copy it. If you say that you don't have the equipment or the technology, you will be labeled as disobeying the decree or put in jail or killed, so he doesn't care if you are killed or not, what will happen to your women and children, and will raid your home. Therefore, the toys bought by the prince are not the most fashionable in the exotic, but mechanical toys with keys, or even machinery, they are puzzles and puzzle puzzles. This is also a very novel thing in the Qing Dynasty, and it doesn't attract much attention, and there are not many samples. The prince who is in the royal family knows deeply that dealing with the emperor and the queen mother is like exploring landmines in exotic landmines, nothing is fine, and if you touch one, you may die.

The princes who came to Cining Palace today are the second prince Fuquan, the third prince Xuanye, the fifth prince Changning, and five princesses including Xue'er (one of them is the biological daughter of Emperor Shunzhi, and the others are the daughters of Prince An, Prince Jian, and Prince Zhuang,) plus the three princes accompanied by Bing'er, a total of nine children.

Fu Jin opened the box of food, took out a bottle of canned fruit and a few cans of drinks, candy and snacks, called the children over, and handed out a bag of candy, snacks and a bag of jelly to each person. gave the Queen Mother a delicate transparent plastic bag White Rabbit Milk Candy. The prince opened a can of drinks for the queen mother and the emperor, and opened a few cans for the children to pour into paper cups. The prince took a paper cup and poured half a cup, and gave it to Xue'er to drink first, in fact, it was a test of poison, and the baby daughter could still be poisonous after drinking it? Besides, it was sealed, and the emperor took a sip without waiting for Xue'er to finish drinking, and said happily: "It's delicious!" Huang Niang, please try it! ”

The Queen Mother smiled and took a sip and said, "It's delicious!" It's so delicious, it's still orange-flavored, and it's refreshing! ”

Bing'er didn't dare to take it, and the prince said: "With your share, you are the prince's companion, what about the big man, obedient." Bing'er just took it.

The prince likes Bing'er very much and feels very pitiful. People have fathers and mothers, and they are young masters at home, and they have become slaves here. This Bing'er is the son of Zhao Tieyan and the grandson of Sunahai, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

The second prince said, "Uncle Huang, what is in that transparent bottle?" Is it delicious? ”

"Miss Su, please go get a few plates and spoons, this is called canned food over there, this king will open it and let the queen mother and the children taste it."

Su Moer brought a saucer and a spoon, and the prince prepared tools for opening the can in advance. Give Xue'er a bite of the opened can and then hand it to Su Moer, Su Moer scooped two pieces into the Queen Mother's plate, and then put one piece on the plate of each prince and princess. One more round was not enough, so Su Moer cut the fruit inside with a spoon and gave half a piece to each child, so a large bottle of canned food was quickly eaten, and the children didn't eat enough, so they looked at the Queen Mother pitifully. The Queen Mother said: "Yes, Lord Rui, you can pick up another bottle, one person hasn't got two pieces, don't say anything if you haven't eaten enough, the gluttonous worms are still hooked." ”

The prince had no choice but to open another bottle, and Su Moer divided it among the children again.

"Hongu sees that this bottle is very good, so I vacated it and kept it. Xiu'er, what is this beautiful iron bucket in? Why can't I recognize all the words on it? ”

Only then did the prince see that all the items and the words on the trademark were all simplified Chinese characters, and the factory address on the packaging was gone. If you think about it carefully, wouldn't it be troublesome if there were words Beijing and Shanghai on it? I really admire Master's foresight and supernatural powers. Hearing the queen mother's question, she told her: "This is a biscuit, a snack, give you a taste?" ”

"Okay, just taste it. What you brought back is too much of a novelty, this bucket is iron-clad? It's hard to think that people do it so exquisitely, and the painting on it is so beautiful. ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, the packaging of things there is very exquisite, and the text is a little different from our Qing Dynasty. Let the minister taste a piece first, it is delicious. Miss Su, you bring it to the Queen Mother. ”

The Queen Mother tasted a piece and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, you can taste it too!" Su Moer, you give each of the children a share. You can taste it too! Oh, Lord Rui, do you have anything in your house? Don't give it all to this palace, you still have a son. ”

"Stay, don't worry."

"That red bowl is also eaten, right? Xiu'er, you tell this palace how to eat. ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, this is called instant noodles, also called instant noodles, soak them in boiling water for a while, and then put the seasoning in and mix them up to use."

"Su Mo'er, you go and order someone to boil water, or taste it first." After saying that, he laughed first.

When the water was boiling, Fujin soaked the "Master Kong Beef Noodles", she hadn't eaten it either, and it was good to listen to Yun'er say that it would take to eat a meal of noodles, and no one here understood it for three or five minutes. That's about it, add the seasoning, and stir it with a small fork. The taste is not bad, I first ate a bite to test the poison, and then gave it to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother tasted it and said yes, and hurriedly asked Su Moer to feed the children to taste, and one person took a bite.

The Queen Mother laughed: "This bowl is very good-looking, but there is less noodles inside, and the packaging must be very expensive." ”

"Yun'er said, five yuan a bowl."

"Five taels of silver? It's amazing! "Okay, the Queen Mother is also talking nonsense.

The queen mother knows that everyone is very taboo about sending food to the emperor and herself, it is obviously a good thing, but after several people on the way, there is a problem, and the food is full of mouths and can't be explained, a piece of kindness has become a donkey's liver and lungs or a trivial matter, maybe you will be killed and exterminated, it is not worth it. Isn't it unlucky to slap the horse and slap the little life in? Therefore, the princes and ministers rarely offered food to the emperor and the queen mother.

The food that the prince brought to the emperor and the queen mother was neither whiskers nor horses, but he wanted the two supreme rulers to get in touch with exotic food, so that they could have an impression in their minds, and they would know what the production of the Rui Wangfu was in general when they did business in the future. Because they are all sealed foods, they were not passed on by anyone after entering the palace, and they went directly to the queen mother and the emperor, so the safety of these foods is still in the hands of the prince. Although exotic foods are not absolutely safe, and many foods have additives, at least they will not die immediately after eating them like arsenic, and there will be no problems at all if you eat them once or twice once or twice. In the future, there will be absolutely no harmful things in the food produced by yourself.

The prince knows that these foods are suitable for all ages. I've said everything I need to say, and I'm going home. The Queen Mother hurriedly said: "Don't worry! Su Moer, you go and seal a thousand taels of silver, and the palace will reward King Rui and his wife. ”

"Queen Mother, I can't help it! Fuyou went out and should bring some gifts to honor the queen mother and the emperor. ”

"It's not like that, it's not easy for you and Yun'er to be dusty! It's hard to wonder how you brought back these valuable things, how hard it was? Needless to say, how did you get the fish tank back? This is not something that can be bought for a thousand taels of silver. You have received all the palaces that are filial to your palace, and the reward is a reward, two different things. This palace knows that you are not short of silver, and it is the same as you, so the reward will be given to Yun'er, it is difficult for her to think so carefully at such a young age, and the silver of this palace will be rewarded to Yun'er! "It seems that Yun'er has voted for the Queen Mother.

"Thank you for the reward of the Empress Dowager!"

"You just used the lunch and then went back, this palace really wants to know the place you went to, Lord Rui, can you tell me?"

"Yes! The ministers obeyed. ”
