Chapter 52: Father and Daughter Visit the Zoo
Since Emperor Yongxi ascended the throne, he has not done a single thing to waste the people and money, on the contrary, his father and ancestor are particularly fond of doing things that empty the treasury by working the people and money.
Like his father, Emperor Chengde, he is a beautiful woman and a beautiful woman, and he is a rare bird and beast.
On the basis of the fact that there are already many good-looking gardens in the palace, there is still a lot of construction inside and outside the palace.
During the reign of Emperor Chengde, the number of royal palaces increased a lot.
The Yujing Garden mentioned by Yan Xiaofeng at this moment is a large-scale zoo that collects all kinds of rare birds and beasts at home and abroad. However, during the period of the first emperor, only the favored concubines and favored ministers of the first emperor could go to watch, and the rest of the time, gold and silver were spent in vain. When he arrived at Yan Xiaofeng, he was too busy to go.
Like Jifang Garden, it is a collection of all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the garden has also achieved a scene in ten steps.
The last time the prince took the attendants to the Qionghua Garden, where the poems were recited, it was also extremely elegant.
There are many more like this.
Similarly, the cost of maintaining these facilities is not low.
Now that the treasury is empty, the money spent makes Yan Xiaofeng feel distressed.
I heard that there were many animals to watch, and Yan Squeaky agreed.
"This is the first time Squeak has gone out with Daddy!"
Yan was full of interest, "Let's bring a lot of delicious food and drink, and eat while shopping." ”
Yan Xiaofeng was not interested in the beauty of these animals, but when he heard Yan Squeak's description, he had some expectations.
Traveling with my daughter is like a dream.
He remembered in a trance that when he was not sent out of the palace by calculation, he was taken out by his eldest brother and sister during the Cold Food Festival.
The third day of the Cold Food Festival is the Qingming Festival, and there are as many people who go out as there are people who go to the grave.
For the first time, he saw so many people, and saw such a rich inheritance.
But when he grows up, Dacheng only has a gorgeous shell and a rotten inside.
In the vicinity of Huangzhuang, where he had lived for a long time, the expressions of the people became numb day by day.
"Daddy, what's wrong with you?"
Finding that Yan Xiaofeng's expression was wrong, Yan Squeak gave up the fragrant candies, slipped off the stool, held the emperor's hand with frosted sugar, and shook it gently.
With this shake, Yan Xiaofeng came back to his senses.
He had an impulse, "Why don't you go to Yujingyuan tomorrow, are you busy tomorrow?" ”
"Not busy, not busy."
Yan Squeak tried hard to recall, "On the side of East Street, the people who are willing to come to Squeak have been almost healed, and Squeak plans to go to West Street another day to have a look." ”
Although she is known as a little miracle doctor, most people believe in the old doctors of those medical halls more, and they are not willing to find Yan Squeak.
Those who are willing to come to her are either impressed by her medical skills, or they are too poor to come for her low fees.
In addition, the capital is too big, there are two inner and outer cities, and there are many streets in the inner and outer cities, and Yan Squeak's reputation has not spread throughout the entire capital, at most it has spread throughout the circle of princes and nobles.
Those people all looked down on this folk princess, and they all talked about it in private, and they all talked about it as a commoner, and it was difficult to change the poverty and sour spirit on their bodies, and they actually dealt with the common people for a little money. In addition, Yan Squeak is young, and no noble girl takes the initiative to associate with Yan Squeak.
However, Yan Squeak didn't know this, but was told to the emperor by the secret guards.
After the father and daughter discussed, Yan Xiaofeng gave himself a holiday the next day, wearing a regular dress and meeting Yan Squeak.
It didn't take long for him to wait for his excited daughter.
Seeing the dress of his daughter and the little donkey, he was silent.
Yan Squeak was actually wearing a short suit that was convenient for movement, carrying a cloth bag and carrying two bamboo tubes in his hands. Beside her, there were several cloth pockets hanging from the little donkey, and the sweet smell came out.
"Daddy, why didn't you bring anything?"
Yan Squeak looked at Yan Xiaofeng's empty hands suspiciously, and raised two bamboo tubes vigorously, "Squeak brought a lot, this is honey water, it's delicious." ”
"Ahem, I let them put the carriage on board."
Yan Xiaofeng didn't expect Yan Squeak to enter the palace for so long, and he still did it himself. And inexplicably, he actually felt that he was doing it himself, more like an ordinary father and daughter going out together.
Thinking of this, he took the bamboo tube and cloth bag and stepped out of his long legs.
"Let's go."
Yan squeaked and followed behind him, so happy that little flowers popped up all over his body.
The little donkey, which had a lot on its back, followed them happily.
Walking to the gate of the palace, Yan Squeak suddenly said, "Ah, Squeak forgot to tell Brother Wei Ming, it's too late to tell him now." ”
The emperor who just wants to travel with his daughter: "......"
"You don't have to tell him," Yan Xiaofeng said coldly, "He was caught reading idle books by several Hanlin scholars yesterday, and he was punished for a lot of homework, so he must be immersed in hard study." ”
Yan squeaked sympathetically, "Sister Ayue......"
"She went to find Zhao Zhu'er, this would not be suitable for inviting Zhao Zhu'er."
Yan Squeak understands very well, Zhao Zhu'er hasn't been able to accept this matter yet, but she has a little bit of a desire to get close to them. Therefore, it is usually the juniors who go to Zhao Zhu'er to play, but whenever an elder comes, Zhao Zhu'er may be scared.
"It's okay," she said very cheerfully with her little white face, "I'll go with Brother Weiming and them on the Cold Food Festival." ”
This is also in line with Yan Xiaofeng's plan.
On the day of the Cold Food Festival, I went with the juniors again, and this time, I let him and his daughter be alone.
There are many large animals in the Yujing Garden, which is a bit far from the palace.
Father and daughter and a little donkey stayed in the huge carriage.
The journey is not boring, after all, Yan Squeak has been asking questions, if he finds that Yan Xiaofeng can't answer, he mutters a guess. The little donkey made a few 'uh-huh' sounds from time to time.
Yan Xiaofeng didn't feel noisy at all, but felt the so-called fireworks in the world for a long time.
This is the first time that the Holy Emperor has come to Yujingyuan today, and the palace people who are responsible for taking care of rare birds and beasts have a twelve-point spirit, and the one who leads this group of palace people is an internal servant.
He personally led the way for the father and daughter, plus a little donkey, and introduced the animals.
"It's ...... The white peacock that was sent, it's a pity that I don't love ...... on weekdays."
Before he finished speaking, the white peacock walked over and opened the screen towards them.
The chamberlain was dumbfounded.
Yan Xiaofeng knew the purpose of the general peacock opening the screen, and he was a little ridiculous.
He has not been married so far, and he was actually ...... by a peacock The sharp gaze fell on the white peacock, and found that the white peacock didn't look at him, and followed the white peacock to Yan Squeak.
Yan Squeaky stretched out his little meat paws a little excitedly, wanting to touch the white peacock, but found that the white peacock was looking at his side. She turned her head to look at the little donkey, who was also in high spirits.
[Maomao, it seems to be opening the screen for you]
If the merit system does not take the initiative to check, it will not know the meaning of the peacock opening the screen.
It held its head a little proudly, "I'm so popular! 】
Yan squeaked with envy on his face.
Yan Xiaofeng was a little speechless.
Then they went to meet some animals, whether these animals are lively or lazy on weekdays, when they see their group, they are very face-saving to come and see, and by the way, they enthusiastically open the screen/howl/deliver food to the little donkey.
"Maomao is amazing!"
Yan squeaked and held Yan Xiaofeng's hand, envious and proud, "It's so popular." ”
