Chapter 158: Imperial Bath
After talking about the honeycomb coal, Chongzhen asked Qiao Fugui and other businessmen, Lord Shen and other officials to call them down.
After working for such a long time, it should be time for me and the beauties!
"Your Majesty, so much hot water is wasted, if you can take a comfortable hot bath, it would be great, since I left the capital, I haven't taken a bath for more than a month!" Xie Tingting saw that the outsiders had gone out, leaving only the emperor and a group of women, so she spoke out first.
Although Xie Tingting is very arrogant and coquettish, she is as sensible as her sister Xie Shanshan when she is in private and on formal occasions.
More than 20 honeycomb coals actually boiled more than a dozen large pots of hot water.
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, Your Majesty, give us this water!" The women also said that they were not as bold as Xie Tingting, how could they directly tell the emperor about such a shy thing as taking a bath?
In ancient times, firewood was very expensive, and firewood for cooking was in short supply, not to mention boiling water for bathing.
So in the winter, you can't take a bath, unless you're a very, very wealthy family. Even if it is Shen Yue, she is just a county daughter, Jiang Qianxi is a concubine, and they can't take a hot bath in winter.
For Shen Yue, Jiang Qianxi, and other Datong women, they are used to it. But for Jiangnan women like Liu Ru and Chen Yuanyuan, they can't take a bath in winter, which is really uncomfortable!
Chongzhen naturally knows that these beauties want to take a bath, eh, not only the beauties want to, but Chongzhen also wants to. Not only did he think about it, but he had already planned for an hour because of this hot bath!
Taking a bath is not just a bath, I am now the emperor, ordinary people eat is eating, and the emperor eats is called eating. Ordinary people take a bath, that is, bathing, bathing and the like, what is the emperor called taking a bath?
It seems to be ...... Imperial Bath Bar......
Imperial bath, this word was an incomparably high-end and high-grade word in Chongzhen's previous life!
Just hearing that word makes you make a "tsk-tut-tut" sound!
Tut-tut!
The beauties are cleanly washed, uh, tonight...... I was able to sleep with a fragrant beauty.....
Just now, Chongzhen was talking about the honeycomb coal Chongzhen's treasure banknote, but he kept thinking about who to let him wait for the emperor's bath...... Why don't you learn from Wei Xiaobao together? Anyway, Jiang Qianxi, Liu Ru, and Chen Yuanyuan are all coming over!
So when he first started boiling water, Chongzhen quietly instructed the handymen to make him a few large wooden barrels.
The largest one should be as big as possible and can accommodate more than a dozen people.
Imperial bath, how can you be so petty!
Datong is now not short of water or coal!
Speaking of the ancient emperor's bathing, many people will think of the Shang Dynasty King "Jiuchi Meat Forest", Qin Shi Huang Lishan "Goddess Soup", Tang Dynasty "Huaqing Pool", "Jiulong Pool" and so on, but in the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's bathing was served by eunuchs, on the one hand, pay attention to etiquette, on the other hand, the palace maid service is easy to leave the charge of "fornication", the Ming Dynasty "clear stream" many, the most like to discuss the emperor's private affairs, at every turn waiting for the emperor to come up to the "court staff" them, not to suffer from the emperor's "court staff", embarrassed to call themselves "clear stream"!
Think about the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it's really declining!
"Don't move this water yet, I'll give you a gift later! You love it promised! Chongzhen said with a smile, and deliberately played a trick.
"Stingy emperor, he won't give us this little hot water! Let's go back and burn it ourselves! Xie Tingting pouted and said, but she was still very curious and asked, "Your Majesty, what kind of gift is it?" ”
"It's almost there!" Chongzhen said, the miscellaneous servant just replied, saying that it can be made for the emperor in an hour! It's almost an hour now.
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of handymen outside the house spoke, "Be careful, don't break it, this is the emperor's thing!" Break it and kill it! ”
Why, am I so fierce? Say I'm killing my head at every turn!
That's how the fox fake tiger power came about!
When the women heard the voice, they went out curiously to see that the things carried by the handymen turned out to be several large wooden barrels, which could hold three or four people to take a bath. The largest one was the size of three or four beds, was rectangular, and had a dragon chair!
I have to say that the ancient carpenters were very good, and they got these things right in an hour's effort, and even carved dragon patterns on them!
Chongzhen bought a house in his previous life, and hired carpenters for decoration, and it took half a month to barely do it, and it was still the kind without patterns!
Of course, now it can't be compared with the previous life, there were two carpenters in the previous life, and now it is a group of carpenters who serve him.
"Worker" and "craftsman" cannot be compared.
"Xie Shanshan Xie Tingting, these two barrels are yours!" Chongzhen said.
Xie Shanshan Xie Tingting is too young, if he puts it in his previous life and lets two little girls wait for him, it will be a felony. Chongzhen has this kind of thinking deeply, so Chongzhen can't accept two little girls waiting for him to bathe.
Xie Shanshan and Xie Tingting didn't think about it, so they happily led their wooden barrels and hot water back to the house to bathe, they hadn't taken a bath for more than a month, and you would happily go back to take a bath if you were you.
There are only four beauties left in the house: Shen Yue, Jiang Qianxi, Liu Rushi and Chen Yuanyuan.
Chongzhen left Shen Yue, that is to give face to Lord Shen, if Shen Yue is not only favored by the emperor, and Jiang Qianxi has been favored by the emperor, then Lord Shen will wonder if the emperor is dissatisfied with him, and he will not dare to let go of the old forces of the Jiang family in Datong, sometimes it is difficult for the emperor, and any woman who is fortunate has to consider a lot!
The four beauties looked at the situation in the house and knew what to do, but this was the first time for them, and the four of them were still a lot of shyness when they waited for the emperor to bathe at the same time.
I heard that in this case, isn't it usually the eunuch who waits for a bath?
Oh, the eunuchs have been used by the emperor as an air force!
"Your Majesty, the concubines are waiting for you to bathe!" Chen Yuanyuan said with a red face! These three women, this kind of thing, do you have to wait for the emperor to speak in person! If you don't open your mouth, then I'll go and please the emperor first!
Chen Yuanyuan took the lead, Liu Ru is Jiang Qianxi and Shen Yue were not shy.
The three of them also came over to wait for Chongzhen, but their little hands were still a little inflexible.
What a heroic figure the emperor, the Ming Dynasty suppressed bandits for more than ten years, how many generals have returned, the emperor took 5,000 people to Pingshanxi, conquered Shaanxi, and punished Kou Li Zicheng! What an honor it is to be able to wait for the emperor to bathe!
Buckets of hot water were poured into the large bathtub, the cloud was steaming and the fog was covered, Chongzhen was lying comfortably on the dragon chair, his tired body was soaked in the hot water, and Jiang Qianxi was massaging him. Looking at the four top beauties in front of him playing with him, Chongzhen thought to himself, this is the real enjoyment, this is the real imperial bath!
