Chapter 208 Gifts
Kangxi just wanted to say that it can't be done, there are not enough seeds left, why should so many be left for the imperial concubine?
But before the words were spoken, Suo'etu couldn't wait to say: "No need, the empress has always understood righteousness..."
"Yes!" Kangxi didn't hesitate to interrupt Suo'etu directly. The imperial concubine didn't think highly of Suo'etu at all, and Kangxi didn't want to become someone like Suo'etu in her heart.
Suo'etu's words had reached his throat, but he could only hold back.
Kangxi ignored them and walked over to look at the corn, which was still a little tender and would take a few more days to fully mature, but looking at the full tassels, he felt boundless pride in his heart.
Suo'etu asked in a low voice beside the prince, how to leave this matter to King Yongjun?King Yongjun looks fine now, but if he has a different heart in the future, wouldn't it be a big threat?
Yinfeng doesn't want to talk to him, after so many years, don't he know that his trust in Xiaosi far exceeds that of Hesheli's family?
Suo'etu is really sorry, if this great thing falls to Hesheli's family, he will definitely...
"Don't say such things in the future." Seeing Suo'etu's indignation, Yinfeng felt that he couldn't explain clearly to him, so he flicked his sleeves and turned away.
Yinreng walked straight up to Yinzhen and asked, "Can you spare yourself the matter of Honghui's enlightenment? Seeing how excited some people are today, it's not difficult to find someone to enlighten Honghui."
"No, I want to do it myself. Didn't the second elder brother enlighten me personally?" Yin Zhen looked at Hong Hui who was talking to Han Ama, and said with a smile.
Honghui is his first child, and Yinzhen has high expectations for him.
Yinfeng nodded, and asked again: "Do you have a charter for the household affairs?"
It's a pity that Xiao Si has been in the household department for a long time, so he just let go.Even because of his serious nature, the household department's deposits are much more than in previous years.
"Yinzhen is not bad." Yinzhen raised his chin and signaled, "If Yinzhen is not willing, no one can take advantage of a penny from him."
"Yinzhen's hobby is to earn money, not to spend it." Yinfeng understands this quite well. Among the several brothers, to be honest, the ninth brother is definitely the smartest.
Yinzhen snickered a bit, and just wanted to say that with Yinzhen, Yinzhen and Yinfei are in charge of the household department, so naturally they don't have to worry about it, when Kangxi suddenly called him over.
After all the courtiers confirmed that all the good breeds were bred by the imperial concubine, all kinds of compliments were heard endlessly, and Yinfeng felt refreshed and proud.What's even more proud is that her aunt planned all of this for herself.
Although Kangxi agreed to keep all the sweet potatoes in Yongshou Palace for Mingxuan, Mingxuan still remembered that these were planted for Yinreng, and packed most of them and sent them to Yuqing Palace.
The crown prince looked at several large boxes of sweet potatoes, her eyes were flushed, she looked at Yinfeng and said, "Auntie is really kind-hearted." Even the birth mother can't do this without asking for anything in return.
"These two are baked just now by the empress, and she said that she will bring them to the prince and princess to taste." Ulan took out two black lumps from her bosom and handed them to Yinreng.
Yinfeng took it without hesitation, and found that it was still a little warm. As soon as he opened it, the unique and overbearing aroma rushed to his face in an instant. Take a bite...I can't stop it!
"Why is it so delicious?" The princess asked in disbelief after taking a bite, raising her head abruptly.
As a princess, how could she not know what good seed means?
Now that I have tasted such a good taste again, I simply don't know how to evaluate it.
"No wonder my aunt said it wasn't sweet enough?" If Ulan didn't stop it, Yinfeng would have eaten it with the skin on.After eating, he sighed again and again.
After Ulan left, Yinfeng also roasted a few and sent them to Qianqing Palace.
Roasted sweet potatoes had a special taste. Kangxi was in a good mood, praised him repeatedly, and even wrote a poem for it.
Because of the sweet potato incident, Kangxi also consciously apologized to Mingxuan. Thinking of what the imperial concubine said about falling out of favor, he came here to sit for a while, and even discussed with her about the marriage of Yinzhen and others.
Mingxuan felt that Kangxi was seriously ill, and that Yintang and Yinyou didn't discuss their marriage with them, or Concubine Yi, Concubine Zhao, Concubine Wen, what to discuss with herself?
"The concubine is most afraid of being a matchmaker. She is afraid that if there is any discord between the husband and wife and people complain, the emperor can make the decision." There was no need to discuss this matter, so Ming Xuan refused.
Kangxi smiled knowingly, not surprised at Mingxuan's refusal.Looking around, she found that Ming Xuan's museum rack had been used for many years, and the furnishings in the room were not very fresh, so she offered to change Ming Xuan to a better one.
"That's a good relationship! The concubine thanked the Lord for his kindness." Ming Xuan smiled happily.
Kangxi saw that the imperial concubine's happiness was so simple, and he wanted to explain to her why he hadn't come for such a long time, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips, so he just shut up.
I didn't even ask how hard it is to cultivate fine seeds. Kangxi's way of expressing his heart is to give rewards!He even agreed to her proposal to take a break and not want to get involved in the draft.
A large number of rewards were sent to Yongshou Palace in an endless stream, and even the imperial dining room had special dishes prepared by the emperor for the imperial concubine every day.
After receiving so many benefits, and hearing that Yinfeng's prestige is much higher now, Mingxuan is naturally satisfied with eating every day.
Ming Xuan threatened that this was a birthday gift for the crown prince, although it was more than two months late, she did not attend all the follow-ups.
Being so disinterested in power and profit, Ming Xuan's reputation in the court has improved a lot.
The two-month draft is coming to an end, and Yinzhen has not selected Fujin from the roster given to him by Kangxi, and even Concubine Yi has chosen him, which is also a lot of disgust.
Just when Kangxi was puzzled, Yinzhen said: "My son doesn't want to marry someone uglier than my son."
With these words, Liang Jiugong almost knelt down to him.
Male and female, Yinzhen's appearance is indeed amazing enough, and his pair of peach blossom eyes are even more attractive.Kangxi took a deep breath before saying a word.
After hearing the words, Yinzhen hurriedly walked out, halfway there, she turned her head and suggested, "How about Khan Ama give them a math problem, and the best and fastest one is my son Fujin?"
If you are not as good-looking as yourself, you must have the same hobbies as yourself, otherwise how can you communicate?
As soon as the words were finished, a notebook was thrown over, and Yinzhen hurriedly slipped away.
"What kind of Fujin do you want?" Yinzhen was a headache, so Kangxi asked Yinti again.
Yinbi hesitated for a moment, looked at Kangxi and replied directly: "Don't choose Auntie and Erniang, it's fine, it's better to be more beautiful."
Whether it's Aunt Ting, or Er Niang, the other has to be offended, and Yin Qu really has a headache.
"Aren't you afraid that you, Fujin, will be bullied?" Kangxi sighed, feeling a little sympathetic to Yin who was caught between Concubine Zhao and Concubine Wen.
Yinji paused, and looked at Kangxi for help.I want him to give me some advice.
Kangxi asked directly: "What do you think of the daughter of King Jingalapu County?" Mongolia is a famous beauty.
Marry a Mongolian Fujin?Yinbi hesitated for a while, and asked, "Can you speak Manchu?" His Mongolian is so-so, so he can't communicate with Fujin?
"Proficient in Manchu." Kangxi replied.
Yinyi nodded directly, and marrying a Mongolian Fujin would kill the hearts of his aunt and Erniang, but it was a good marriage.
Kangxi watched those two women force his son like this, and felt more and more pitiful for Yinji.
At the end of the draft, the candidates for the Nine Fortunes and Ten Fortunes have been decided, and Concubine Yi is fine. Although she is not the girl I chose at the beginning, but in comparison, she is simply much better.
Concubine Zhao passed out directly, and Concubine Wen burst into tears.
"Xiao Shi has always been smart." Yinreng sighed upon hearing the words. He was reminded by his aunt before that Yinren was not as simple and honest as his appearance, but after so many years, Yinreng also understood him somewhat.
As the elder brother of the emperor with a higher background, Yinyi had all the bargaining chips of the Niu Hulu clan on him, but the emperor's gift of marriage instantly failed all his plans.
"I don't understand either. Why do my mother and the others think that I will be the second brother of the prince? I can't do it with a brain!" Afterwards, Yin Qu spit on his ninth brother, and he was glad that Khan Ama this time He didn't sell himself, he just said that he had made a decision a long time ago.
Yinzhen patted the tenth brother's shoulder lightly, and promised: "In the future, let's hang out with my brother! Don't think too much, let's focus on making money, life will be no worse than anyone else."
"Brother Jiu, thank you for having you." Yinyu looked at Yinzhen movedly, turned around and asked, "The money I lent Brother Jiu last time for turnover, can Brother Jiu pay me back a little so that I can buy one for Future Fujin?" Gift?"
"Chengchengcheng! Brother, I'll ask Khan Ama to ask for it. Those who owe money these days are all elders." Yinzhen nodded and walked to Qianqing Palace.
The imperial decree has been issued, no matter how unwilling Concubine Zhao and Concubine Wen are, there is no way to change it, she can only accept her fate!
Not long after the sweet potatoes matured, the corn and potatoes also matured one after another. Although the yield of potatoes was astonishing, there were not many surprises, so Yinzhen planned to try planting again in late autumn.
Because of Yinzhen's experience, Kangxi gave Yinzhen full authority over all matters related to the new breed.At the same time, tell Yinzhen not to let other people interfere.
Yinzhen collected so much money from him before, and this kind of thing can't happen again in the future.
Yin Zuo never thought that such a good thing would be sent to the prince like this?And the high salt tax that I worked so hard to get back was actually turned over so plainly, not only did I not treat it differently, nor did I appreciate it.
After this incident, the prince became famous.
On Mingxuan's birthday, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty unexpectedly united to give her a heavy gift, one golden sweet potato, one golden corn, one golden potato... the weight added up to twenty or thirty catties.
At the same time, Mingxuan also received a batch of high-quality story books. Although she didn't mention too many plots that she liked to read, the stories were really well written, with precise words and gorgeous rhetoric. Even the poems in them were Unique charm.Even the words are written extremely beautifully!
These two gifts were sent to Ming Xuan's heart!Both spiritual and material have been greatly satisfied.
