56 Chapter 56
"However, the gold and jade you said are rich all over the world, I can't touch or eat them, but they just sound good and have nothing to do with myself."
Hehua was extremely aggrieved, "And what you said I wanted, there were countless people holding it in front of me when I raised my hand, this is not at all!"
"You and my father don't allow me to eat snacks, others don't dare to give me snacks, and no matter how much I want to eat, no one will give it to me."
"Only Zhang Han, only he will secretly bring me snacks, but now, he has gone to the southwest, and even he can't secretly send me snacks, I don't have snacks to eat."
The more Hehua thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and his little face wrinkled into a small bun, "I just want to eat snacks, but you don't allow me to eat them." "It's okay if you don't allow me to eat, and you don't allow others to give it to me, Meng Shangqing, you're too much!"
The delicate little princess was aggrieved, and she was about to burst into tears, Meng Yi looked at the pitiful little appearance of the glutinous rice dumplings, couldn't help sighing, and reached out to hug the person.
"Why doesn't the princess allow the princess to eat snacks?" Meng Yi asked Hehua.
Hehua puffed up, "It's because you don't want me to eat." "
"It's because it's not good for you."
Meng Yi was a little helpless, "The princess often lives in the deep palace, and she has never seen a child with a rotten tooth, let alone a tooth that can no longer chew hard things at a young age. "
Although Meng Yi talked about eating dim sum every day is not good for his health, it was the first time he spoke in such detail, and Hehua was a little surprised, "No, can't you?"
"It's just a few bites of snack, it shouldn't be that serious, right?"
"Seriously, very seriously." As if to match his words, Meng Yi's expression became serious, "If the princess doesn't believe it, you can take a look at the teeth of people who often eat snacks."
Thinking about that picture, Hehua was a little afraid, "No, I don't want to watch it, I won't dare to eat snacks after watching it."
"If only the princess knew."
Meng Yiwan.
The little princess had just rolled on the bed, and the two little ones that had been tied up were a little scattered at this time, Meng Yi reached out and stroked it, well, it felt very good, no wonder His Majesty liked to rub the little princess so much.
"Serve the princess to freshen up."
r />
The maid stepped forward quickly, and Meng Yi got up and walked out of the inner hall.
After a while, the maid combed Hehua again. Now that the weather is hot, Shaofu has sent a silk dress as thin as a cicada's wings, and Hehua has changed into new clothes and is carried out of the inner hall by Hanshu.
Meng Yi was drinking tea in the outer hall at this time, and when he saw the glutinous rice dumplings carved in pink and jade being carried out, his eyelids were raised, and the tea cup in his hand rested on the desk.
"Hmm, the new clothes from Shaofu?" Meng Yi looked at the little princess who was held in his arms by Han Su, and praised, "It's very good for the princess."
Hehua doesn't know much about the material of the clothes, but he thinks that this dress is very different from the previous one, it is very cool to wear on the body, and it looks good.
- Meng Yi praised her for her good looks!
was praised by Meng Yi for her good looks, Hehua was very happy, and even the grievance of not being able to eat a small snack was much lighter, she patted the back of Han Su's hand, signaled Han Su to put herself down, and then carried the small skirt, walked to the table in front of Meng Yi, and walked around in front of Meng Yi with her little short legs.
"It's just very flattering to me!" Hehua smiled, "The clothes are beautiful, and I look good too."
"Well, the princess is pretty."
"The princess is the best."
The maids around couldn't help but purse their lips and chuckle.
Meng Yi couldn't help laughing, "The princess is also beautiful today, and she looks good every day."
Hehua was very happy.
"A good-looking princess must have beautiful teeth as a foil." Meng Yi got up and hugged Hehua across the desk, "If you don't have beautiful teeth, does the princess think she will still look good?"
Hehua remembered the teeth that Meng Yi had just said. It's black, and it's rotten, how can it look good with such teeth across the mouth?
"It's not pretty."
Hehua shook his head honestly.
"That's it."
Meng Yi tapped his finger lightly, "Come in."
What comes in?
Hehua was a little puzzled.
Soon, she didn't have any doubts, Meng Yi gave an order, and the guards brought in a few children, the children were not very old, they looked only three or two years older than her, all of them were dressed in tiger brains, and they were very cute to look at.
"These are the sons of the minister's brother's subordinates."
Meng Yidao,
34; Their parents were away on the expedition, and their mother was very doting on them, and they loved to eat dim sum and preserved fruits, so they let them eat dim sum and preserved fruits, and over the years, their teeth were all broken. β
"Open your mouth."
The guards commanded.
"Ahh
One by one, the teenagers opened their mouths.
Hehua saw blackened teeth. Not only is it blackened, but some of the teeth have rotted out, leaving only a little pointed gum, which looks abrupt and terrifying.
Such a cute child, but with such teeth, Hehua shuddered and couldn't help but scratch Meng Yi's shirt.
The placket of his clothes was tightly grasped by a pair of small hands, Meng Yi glanced at the small hands, and a little smile came up in his eyes. - Sure enough, you will only know that you are afraid if you see it with your own eyes.
"Do you regret eating dim sum and preserved fruit?"
Meng Yi asked the child.
After the children's fathers set out on the expedition, Meng Yi would come to the door from time to time or send someone to send things to their homes to take care of their lives.
"Of course I regret it."
"If I had known that eating too much snack would hurt my teeth, I wouldn't have eaten so much." "yes, so do I." "In the past, A-Niang didn't allow me to eat, and I still thought A-Niang was in charge of a lot, but now I think about A-Niang for my good."
Hehua shuddered again.
She was born without a mother, so naturally there was no mother to raise her.
Although she didn't have her mother by her side, her father was very attentive to her and took her with him to raise her, for fear that she would have an accident.
As for Meng Yi, that's not to mention.
Meng Yiguan worshiped Shangqing, went in and out to accompany his father, his father was busy with government affairs, and the burden on his body was not light, not only to be in charge of the palace guards, but also to ask the livelihood of Xianyang, and he was busy all day long, but despite this, as long as he was free, he would still come to see her to see how she was doing recently, but she had eaten and slept well and was in a good mood.
With the careful care of her father and Meng Yi, of course she can't hide her love of dim sum, it is something that both of them know. After knowing that, of course, they had to take care of it, and the two of them seriously explained to the palace people more than once, and they were not allowed to bring her snacks in order to make her happy.
Her favorite dim sum couldn't let go of eating, she was very aggrieved, just now, she was still losing her temper with Meng Yi about this matter, saying that he was too strict with himself, and he didn't even allow her to eat dim sum, and said that he was simply too much.
But look at it again, it's bigger than her
The teeth of children of a few years old, she suddenly felt that it was not for nothing that her father and Meng Yi asked her to eat snacks, not to mention whether such teeth look good or not, it will be a problem to eat in the future.
Hehua slowly lowered his eyes. She seems to be wrong, Father and Meng Yi are really good for her, otherwise her teeth would be the same as these people.
Meng Yi caught a glimpse of Hehua's expression, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "It's not too late to know now."
"I know, I'm sure I'm not going to eat snacks like I used to." "And me, and so do I!" The children spoke.
Meng Yi bowed, "In the future, eat less snacks and preserved fruits, and be examined by the medical officer regularly." "After a while, you should change your teeth and protect your teeth, otherwise you won't even be able to get into the army."
Now that the national policy has changed dramatically, there is no longer a large-scale use of soldiers, and the soldiers are not much more expensive, and if they have a bad tooth, they will brush it down when they enlist in the army.
"I'll protect my teeth, I'm sure I'll join the army!" I will become a Great Qin sergeant just like my father!" As soon as they heard that they couldn't join the army, the children all became excited, patting their chests one by one to promise that they would protect their teeth.
"And me."
Hehua then raised his little hand, "I'll eat less snacks in the future!"
It's horrible.
It's terrible after eating too much dim sum!
She doesn't want such horrible teeth!
"Yes, the princess will also eat less snacks in the future." The children chattered, "Rotten teeth are not only ugly, but also very painful, how can such a delicate person as a princess bear that kind of pain?"
She doesn't want a toothache!
For the first time in his life, Hehua had a new understanding of the dangers of dim sum, and deeply agreed with the words of his father and Meng Yi - dim sum is really not enough to eat!
Children always like to play with children, especially after the united front for the same thing, there are endless topics, Hehua and the children mingle, have a great time.
As night fell, Hehua reluctantly sent his playmates out of the hall, "You remember to come to me often." β
"Got it."
The children said goodbye to Hehua, "We'll come to the princess when we have time!" Meng Yi sent people to send the children out of the palace.
"The princess doesn't blame the ministers now
The supervisor is too strict?" After sending the child away, Meng Yi went back to find Hehua.
"Not strict."
Hehua shook his head, "You call me right, I shouldn't have secretly eaten snacks." "I will try to quit this problem in the future and try not to eat snacks."
Meng Yi smiled, "It's best if the princess can think like this."
Meng Yi carried Hehua into the hall.
Immediately after, the man raised his hand and waved, and the guards rushed in, serving dish after plate of small snacks.
The crystal clear little snacks filled the entire food table, and Hehua couldn't believe his eyes, "Dim Sum!"
"Yes, refreshment." Meng Yi nodded, "All of them are the princess's favorites, and the princess can eat as much as she wants."
Hehua bit his finger and stared at the small snack, "However, eating too much dim sum is not good for your teeth."
"It's not just bad for your teeth, it's not good for your body."
Seeing that Hehua didn't move, Meng Yi picked up chopsticks, picked up a piece of dim sum and fed it to Hehua's mouth, "If you eat too much, you will be nauseous and want to vomit, and you will roll on the ground in pain,"
"β¦β¦ And you're still feeding me?"
Hehua swallowed.
Meng Yi raised his eyebrows, "Because the princess is a princess, because the princess wants to eat." Hehua tilted his head.
She seemed to understand what Meng Yi meant.
Because she is a princess, she can do whatever she wants and whatever she wants, of course, provided that she does not harm her body.
Therefore, she who has all the gold and jade, does not need to feel that Zhang Han is the best in the world because Zhang Han secretly gave her snacks. - She is a princess, how can she be bought by a few pieces of pastry?
Meng Yi asked her to look at the children's teeth, or let the guards fill her food table with dim sum, the purpose of which was not teeth and dim sum, but Zhang Han.
- She shouldn't treat Zhang Han as her closest person for a few pieces of snack.
"However, Zhang Han is not a small favor to me.
4; Hehua thought about it, and he was very kind to me, not only giving me snacks, but also many things.
Meng Yi raised his eyebrows, Because you are a princess, he is a courtier, and it is right for him to give you something.
It's not just Zhang Han, isn't it
Didn't the minister give the princess anything? Shaofu hasn't sent it? The girl of the Lu family has never sent it, or has Liu Ji never sent it?
Suddenly?
Hehua was stunned.
It seems that this is the truth. There were a lot of people who gave her things, and everyone was eager to give her the best.
Among the people who gave her things, the things Zhang Han sent were not the most valuable, nor the most rare, the things he sent were very ordinary, and they were very common things, such as the brilliant flowers he encountered when he left the palace, the strangely shaped stones by the river, the rabbits made of dog's tail grass, the grasshoppers made of straw stalks, and even the crickets in the field, he also brought her back and let her keep them in the palace for several days.
ββIn a sense, the things sent by Zhang Han are indeed worthless, and they are the small favors that Meng Yi said.
"But I am not short of money, nor of gold, silver, and jewelry." Hehua hesitated, What I lacked was something I hadn't seen.
"I have never seen crickets, grasshoppers and rabbits made of grass, nor have I seen the brilliant flowers on the Shiyu Road by the river." So when he brings me these things, I love it and I'm happy.
Does it have to be expensive to send something? No. I like what he sends.
Yes, gifts don't need to be expensive.
Meng Yi carried people into the hall, put them on the small couch, and sent goose feathers for thousands of miles, the gift was light and affectionate, and the gift was more important than the value. "But princess, you are the princess of Daqin, Your Majesty's favorite daughter, as long as it is what you want, there will be countless people vying to hold it in front of you, provided that it does not harm your body.
You like beautiful clothes, Shaofu will send you new clothes with different patterns.
You like to eat delicious dim sum, and Wang Li will bring you new dim sum every time he enters the palace. You like to go out to play, the girl of the Lu family and Liu Ji have taken you to the fun places in Xianyang City.
"Do they put less thought into you?"
Isn't what they give you to your liking?" It's the same dim sum, is the dim sum sent by Wang Li worse than Zhang Han?" Since it's not bad, why does the princess favor one over the other, like the straw grasshoppers and snacks sent by Zhang Han, and think he is the most attentive to you?
Hehua was stunned.
It's this
Reason.
They are very good to themselves and very attentive, but she is indeed more favoritist and prefers Zhang Han.
"However, the Shaofu is powerful and powerful, Wang Li has a general, and you are there." Hehua thought about it, Sister Pheasant has a family, Liu Ji has a group of good friends, but Zhang Han doesn't.
Zhang Han...... Zhang Han only has his younger brother and me, except for me and his younger brother, he has no one else. He's not like you, he's always alone, he's-
Princess, do you think he is pitiful, so you like him a little more? Meng Yi interrupted Hehua's words.
Hehua nodded, he was really pitiful.
That being the case, has the princess ever thought about another question, if she can get the pity of the princess by having a poor background, will there be people who will do what she likes in the future, make her life experience very pitiful, and then win the sympathy and love of the princess?
Meng Yi's voice was not in a hurry.
This...
Hehua was asked.
That's it, the princess is the king, and the monarch should not favor one over the other, because that will make countless people opportunistic and pretend to be the princess likes.
Meng Yi's voice was slow, and the princess's daughter, the most important thing is the kindness of others to the princess, so the princess does not need to feel that this person is devoted to the princess because of a little favor from others, and the princess should repay him a hundred times.
Princesses don't need to.
"Because the princess is a princess, it is his duty as a courtier to be good to the princess, and he should be good to the princess and dedicate everything he has to the princess.
As for the princess, the princess is the king, and it is very rare for the princess to be able to be courteous to the corporal, as for the rest, the princess does not have to be like this, because the princess has no responsibility to be good to Zhang Han.
Hehua understood, but he didn't feel as if he didn't understand, No, Father is not this kind of person. "Father is the king, you are the minister, Father Lixian Corporal is enough, you don't have to pay attention to you, but Father is still very good to you
Meng Yi's eyelids lifted slightly.
You're not right.
>
If Father is the kind of person who is ruthless, will you still swear allegiance to Father? You may be, but you will never go to the trouble for your father like you are now, and you will die without regrets.
Meng Yi's breathing was light.
Everyone in the world says that His Majesty is violent and violent, but in their eyes, His Majesty is an iron-fisted emperor, but he is also a person of great affection.
"I want to be my father's kind of person."
Hehua clenched his small fists and looked serious, He is the first emperor of Great Qin, and he is also a monarch worthy of your allegiance.
This sentence was too sudden, Meng Yi was slightly stunned, and then, the man's eyelids jumped fiercely, and he subconsciously went to cover Hehua's mouth, but as soon as he raised his hand, he suddenly let go again, he felt that he was too sensitive, maybe the princess was just talking about this, after all, the princess is well known for her admiration for Your Majesty, and it is normal to want to be a person like Your Majesty.
There was no need for him to cover the princess's mouth.
Meng Yi withdrew his hand and looked around.
The guards in the palace held their breath as if they had never heard anything, and as for the maids who served the princess, they were even more afraid to come out. - They won't publicize it.
The hearts are a cloud hole, this is a thousand things, and there are mountains and mountains
Meng Yi smiled and played a round without a trace, It seems that His Majesty is not only an extremely good emperor, but also a father who has won the heart of his daughter, who can make the princess aim for His Majesty and want to become a popular person like His Majesty.
Hehua blinked suspiciously.
Meng Yi's words were a little different from her own thoughts, but what were the specific differences, she couldn't tell them now, after thinking about it, she nodded along with Meng Yi's words.
Well, that's probably it. In short, I want to be like my father, and I want to be a very good person.
Let everyone swear allegiance to her.
Make her the monarch that all courtiers dream of. - Just like Father.
She wants to be me?
The emperor who reviewed the fold sneered, and then wrote his own comments on the fold, and he was not small.
Meng Yi glanced at Yingzheng on the throne, the emperor's face was as usual, and he didn't seem to be surprised at all by this sentence, the little princess of Jin Zun and Jade had been raised in the palm of his hand for too long, and it would not be surprising to say anything.
How arrogant is the son of Hu Hai, who has not yet been executed by capital punishment? But no matter how arrogant he was, he never said it
In this case, because it is trespassing, it is a matter that will be mentioned by the princes as soon as it is enlightened, even if you are a princess, you will die, even if you can't think of it in a dream.
Meng Yi's brows moved slightly, Although the princess was taught by the doctors, she was also educated in another world, and the rules there seemed to be completely different from Daqin. β
There, women were able to read and write like men, and even participate in politics. Ying Zheng made up for what Meng Yi didn't finish.
Before entering another world from the burial area, he had already followed Xiao Shiyi to that world, which was a completely different world from Daqin, there was no dignity and inferiority, only the division of professions and occupations.
Meng Yi looked up at Ying Zheng's face, Does Your Majesty like that world?
Liked, but didn't like either. The approved fold was put aside by Ying Zheng, and the man opened a new book.
Meng Yi smiled, The minister probably knew what His Majesty didn't like about it. His Majesty doesn't like it - there is no Great Qin.
Win Zheng's action paused slightly, and the tip of the pen drew a bright red crease in the fold.
Meng Yi, you have trespassed.
The emperor's voice was slightly dull.
Meng Yi smiled even deeper, and bowed his hand to Yingzheng to make amends, Yes, the minister trespassed, and the minister was fined for one year and received thirty military sticks.
Six months, ten military sticks. Ying Zheng didn't raise his head, and wrote his own comments on the crease again.
Here.
Meng Yi'er withdrew from the inner sanctum.
The hall was brightly lit, and outside the hall was starlight, Meng Yi looked up at the starlight in the sky and smiled softly. - Sure enough, it is His Majesty who swears allegiance to the death, thousands of generations, Kyushu and the four seas, and there is only one such Majesty.
Meng Shangqing was beaten with ten military sticks? Also fined for six months? The next morning, Hehua was taken aback, how could he be such a smart person, how could he allow himself to make mistakes and be punished?
Han Shu sighed, The people around His Majesty are the strictest, and they can't get any news. In the end, the slave really had no choice, so he went to the outer hall and asked, and this question asked the slave to ask something.
Han Shu moved to Hehua's side, and said to Hehua in a suppressed voice, "Your Majesty wants to expand Xianyang City, but Meng Shangqing seems to be reluctant, saying that the treasury has no money, so let Your Majesty postpone the construction of the project
hearts.
"Your Majesty's desire to expand Xianyang City is not a matter of one or two days, there was really no money before, but now the caravan is prosperous, and the taxes are paid a lot, and the treasury is not empty for a long time, and Meng Shangqing does not let His Majesty expand at this time, it is a little unreasonable.
Hehua opened his mouth, That is what he said, but it takes a lot of money to expand Xianyang City, and those taxes are probably not enough.
Princess, what are you thinking?
Han Su said, how can our treasury only count on the tax of the caravan? The seeds you gave have been promoted to Kyushu, even if the tax is light, the tax collected by Kyushu is not a small number, these grains, plus the taxes of the caravan, although the expansion of the new city is still a little nervous, but it can also be started.
If you can start construction, why not expand?
Your Majesty must want to expand, and no one can stop Your Majesty's thoughts. The loss of the person who speaks is to be blinded, and if someone else is replaced, it will not be a matter of punishing Lu and the ten army sticks.
Hehua didn't feel right, Father wouldn't be so arbitrary, and Meng Shangqing wouldn't be so loyal.
He spoke very well, even if it was to persuade his father, it sounded like he was coaxing his father to be happy, instead of adding fuel to his father's fire and letting him punish him with money and a military stick.
No, I'll have to check it out. Hehua put down his chopsticks, "I need to figure this out.
The princess is in the house?
Meng Yi, who had just finished changing the medicine, raised his eyelids slightly, got up and dressed, and asked her to go to the flower hall first.
Here.
The guards should be lowered.
Send these things to her. Meng Yi pointed to the new gadgets from the Hu Ren caravan on the small table on the bed, the princess should like it.
Like this kind of colorful glass thing, he had vaguely seen in the princess's enlightenment book, it seemed to be an extremely ordinary and extremely common thing in another world, but these ordinary and common things were called a high price by the Hu caravan, and it cost ten taels of gold to exchange for a small box.
- Well, the princess is cute and cute, and she is the most suitable for earning this kind of black money.
