Chapter 39 The Emperor's Farming
Ji Chen nodded when he heard this, indicating that he knew, and Xiao Yanguan grabbed his right hand with his left hand for a while: "If the general is fine, why don't you invite the general to breakfast!" ”
Ji Chen originally had only one sister in the family, Concubine Li, but now there was nothing trivial, and he didn't want to refuse at the moment, so he agreed: "Since Lord Yan is hospitable, Ji is disrespectful." ”
Xiao Yanguan was even more happy when he heard this, he was almost jumping up and down to lead the way, Ji Chen originally had nothing to do and felt that this little Yanguan was not simple before agreeing, but now looking at his cheerful back, there is a rare sense of genuine pleasure.
As soon as Qin Zhao arrived in the queen's palace, he smelled a fragrance, and he couldn't wait to go in, and the eunuch's announcement behind him hadn't sounded yet, but he suddenly bumped into Lu Qingjin coming out with food.
Neither of them reacted for a while, a pot of tomatoes and eggs were spilled on Qin Zhao's dragon robe, and Zhang Dequan said in a trembling voice: "The slave will go and get another piece of clothing." ”
Qin Zhao didn't think there was anything hot about this dish, thinking that it was Lu Qingjin who brought out the cold dish before he bumped into him, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he didn't want to worry about it at the moment: "Forget it, I remember that the queen has my private clothes here, just change it on." ”
Lu Qingjin was stunned and asked Cai Wei incredulously: "When will there be his clothes here, isn't this the queen's bedroom?" ”
Cai Wei twitched the corner of her mouth and reminded in a low voice: "All the palaces of the concubines in this palace will have the emperor's private clothes, and of course you are the queen."
Qin Zhao was a little tired in the early court, and he was even more angry at the moment: "How come you, as the queen, don't even know this thing, I haven't seen you move into the palace until now!" ”
Lu Qingjin was originally quite happy that he was defending himself in the court, but when he heard this, he was very happy and halved at once, but after all, this was also the trouble she caused, she packed up her things and went out, leaving no words.
Qin Zhao had no intention of getting angry with her, and he was also a little embarrassed at this time, but fortunately, Cai Wei immediately took out the emperor's private clothes in the palace, he coughed and didn't say anything, Zhang Dequan sighed and waited for him to change his clothes.
The little palace maid in the kitchen was startled when she saw her coming, and hurriedly took the plate in her hand: "How can Niang Niang do these things by herself!" Just tell the slave what you want to eat. ”
Lu Qingjin waved her hand and let her out, she couldn't complain about this matter, she could only say that this era is really bad, women's status is underground, she thought that it was not easy for Qin Zhao to do it again.
Qin Zhao sat in the dining room a little nervously after changing his clothes, this queen has never given him a good face since she entered the palace, and now she has been spilled with the dishes that she has made with great difficulty, at this time I am afraid that I am thinking about how to get myself out!
Zhang Dequan understands the queen, so he is also a little worried about the emperor, the master and servant are restless and look at each other in pairs, but fortunately Cai Wei came in and said: "Your Majesty, please wait a little longer, Niangniang has already redone it in the kitchen, and I want to come and eat for a while." ”
Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said quite complacently: "This queen's etiquette has finally improved a little, and it is not in vain that I have mentioned it many times!" ”
Zhang Dequan coughed helplessly, Qin Zhao followed his line of sight, Lu Qingjin stood at the door with a pot of tomatoes and eggs, Qin Zhao looked at her face and smiled.
Lu Qingjin didn't get angry, but put the basin of tomatoes and eggs on the table with a cold face, the solid wood table made a loud bang, and her voice was cold: "Your Majesty, let's have breakfast quickly!" I think there is no official business recently, and the concubine heard that His Majesty will go to worship the sky in a few days, so it is better to go to the vegetable garden with the concubine for a while! ”
Qin Zhao originally opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but seeing that Lu Qingjin's posture was clearly that he would have no food if he didn't agree, he nodded and pretended to be reserved: "What the queen said is very true, I will go with the queen to see it in a while, after all, it is also a national event." ”
Lu Qingjin nodded at this time, Cai Wei handed over two bowls of rice at the right time, Zhang Dequan almost laughed out loud when he saw it, Qin Zhao felt nothing while eating, after all, he was the emperor, and it turned out that he was doing some of the lightest work in the vegetable garden, and there was no heavy work at the moment.
Qin Zhao stood in the middle of the vegetable garden disapprovingly, the peppers had already come out one by one, and they were crowded together, Lu Qingjin looked at the peppers that had grown a lot and breathed a sigh of relief, she originally thought that she hadn't taken care of it in the past few days, these peppers were already dead, but she didn't expect it to be good.
She looked at Qin Zhao, who was still looking around beside her, and said with some ill will: "The emperor thinks that he already understands the habits of these things, and everyone else is clumsy, so it's better for the emperor and his concubines to come together!" ”
Qin Zhao didn't expect that he would become like this just after asking a few more questions, and he was stunned at the moment! "What are you doing with me?" ”
Lu Qingjin smiled: "What else can I do, didn't Your Majesty see that these seeds have already emerged!" Of course, these seedlings were planted in the ground, and the concubine also got some black bean seeds a few days ago. ”
Qin Zhao had to roll up his sleeves and dig up the soil with a dark face, and the green seedlings were dug out one by one! Qin Zhao was reluctant at first, after all, there had never been an emperor who accompanied the empress every day to turn the imperial garden into a vegetable garden, but when he saw these little seedlings trembling and standing up in the soil, he felt that everything was worth it.
For the first time, he felt that this country was like this little pepper seedling, as long as you treat it diligently, life can always grow well by itself.
Lu Qingjin looked at him with some experience and put the soil in his hand around Xiao Miao and nodded with some relief, which made her feel that she was not unable to change this bad country, and it was not that she could not help this fairly good emperor escape the so-called Ice Age.
Maybe Lu Qingjin herself has the blood of Emperor Yan, she saw that other people in this country were selfish and selfish, and there was an inexplicable anger, but the status of women in this country was low, she couldn't go too far with her words and deeds, even if she used this power in her hand to do a little thing that benefited the country and the people, it also made the court uneasy.
Not to mention that the people in this country don't pay attention to agriculture at all, she almost gave up on the night she got sick, but Qin Zhao's sincere look at her made her feel that there was still hope, and sure enough, today all this proves her efforts.
