Chapter 209 Compliments
The gift was sent to the palace in advance, and Ming Xuan was fascinated by reading the story book.With such a beautiful vocabulary description, Ming Xuan really felt that her whole soul had been greatly sublimated.
Most of the protagonists in it are just and great. No matter how twists and turns the story is, it always ends with a happy ending. Although the story is clichéd, it has ulterior motives.
Talented people, even writing cliché stories, can make people immersed.
This kind of glorious and stalwart words is worthy of being passed on to the world, let the world recite it!
But after reading it, it's over. Ordinary people are still ordinary people. Ming Xuan thinks that she likes to read more worldly things.
For example, those clichés sent by my good friend Eunuch Liang, and those heavy things made of gold.
Because of these important gifts, Ming Xuan's birthday banquet today was extraordinarily grand.
"Before, the master of the family was very guilty. He accidentally stepped on the fruit seedlings planted by the empress. Although the empress did not pursue it righteously, he felt deeply guilty in his heart and couldn't sleep or eat. I hope that the empress will accept it."
After Ming Xuan heard such an apology, she didn't feel bad any more, and even sent back twelve apples by herself.
"Twelve is two sixes, six and six are all smooth, I hope all the adults will go smoothly in the future, share the worries of the emperor, and do your best for the Qing Dynasty." People have given such a heavy gift, and Ming Xuan has no choice but to say something nice.
The wife who received the apple was naturally very happy, so Ming Xuan simply sent someone to take out those whose wife did not come according to the gift list.There is no bias and no discrimination.
"I made it, I made it!" These wives did not come empty-handed, each of them gave gifts, and Ming Xuan sighed with emotion after they left.
Receiving a birthday present this time is really the kind of soft hand, and Kangxi also gave himself a very heavy birthday gift.Seeing her private treasury full of money, Ming Xuan really felt like getting rich.
Even though she has too many Mingxuans and no longer desires for material things, she is still very satisfied looking at the full house.
Because the craze for sweet potatoes has lasted for several years without abating, and the popularity has even increased year by year. Ming Xuan even has the title of the Goddess of Saturn, which is widely circulated.
As the scope of the spread became wider and wider, everyone knew that the current Crown Prince cares about the common people.
Not only Yinzhen, but also Mingxuan went to the farm to teach the peasant women how to raise seedlings.During spring plowing, he even accompanied Kangxi to attend.
Seeing the skillful and swift actions of the empress in the palace, and the behavior of going to the ground without being too dirty, everyone was very moved.
With the gradual increase in the number of seedlings year by year, many people in Beijing have added a lot of such foods to their dining tables. Of course, the people like the most simple foods, such as corn cakes, stewed potatoes, steamed rice cakes, etc. Satiating foods such as sweet potatoes.
The rich and powerful's home is much more refined, and the most popular ones are the fried potato chips dipped in ketchup from the palace, as well as the potato chips of various flavors, which are suitable for all ages.There are also vermicelli made of sweet potatoes, which are also everyone's favorite food.
Even Kangxi would eat a few potato chips in between occasional critiques.
For Mingxuan, eating potato chips while reading a book is definitely a pleasure, and occasionally a hot and sour rice noodle is also a great joy in life.At other times, you can control yourself. After all, if you want to live a long and healthy life, a healthy diet is still very important.
Hearing what his aunt said to eat less snacks and eat well, Yinfeng nodded again and again.
Mingxuan can fully satisfy the joy of raising children here in Yinfeng.
Of course, Mingxuan resolutely gave up the idea of making her daughter better after Rourou could speak, and it doesn't feel bad to be a loving mother.
In the past two years, as the prince's reputation has grown, except for Yinzuo who can occasionally express disagreements with the prince in the court, everyone in the court is very satisfied with the prince. It is also the biggest force in the court, so Kangxi reused Nalan Mingzhu, who was dismissed from office.
Mingxuan could feel Kangxi's growing anxiety, how could Yinfeng not feel it?
Yinfeng didn't know how to comfort Ama Khan. After all, as his aunt said, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal in the world. He will grow up, and Ama Khan will grow old. Even his aunt has a few gray hairs on his head.
In the winter of 41, when Kangxi announced that he would make his fourth southern tour in the first month of the coming year, Mingxuan asked to go with him because Yinfeng and Rourou were going to accompany him.
Kangxi did not refuse. On this point, Mingxuan was actually very grateful to Kangxi. Many times, he could see him being tolerant to her.
"Let's take a good stroll this time, in the future I'll really lose my legs and feet, so I won't be able to walk if I want to." Mingxuan said to Kangxi in a rambling manner.
Kangxi doesn't like to hear this kind of thing the most now. He thinks that he is still strong, and there are princes and daughters born in the palace, but he didn't refute this woman with black hair, two gray hairs, and she went around to seek the imperial doctor. .
"I used to stay up late and study without getting tired, but now I want to sleep when it gets dark, and I feel lethargic if I sleep less." Mingxuan said to Kangxi: "Do you think my concubine should invite a dancer to come in and learn to practice dancing?" , can you regain your physical strength?"
"You're not afraid of flashing your waist." If you don't learn dance when you are young, if you suddenly want to learn dance in your forties, Kangxi is also helpless.
Mingxuan put on a posture that you don't understand, and in the twelfth lunar month of winter, she directly called someone into the palace to choreograph for herself.
After Kangxi saw it once, he was in a daze. Is this called dancing?Is it just waving your hands in circles and lifting your feet?
The dancer was even more skeptical about life, she even felt that the imperial concubine didn't need to choreograph by herself at all, she could decide everything by herself.
Mingxuan became more interested in dancing. She brought Chunni, Ulan, Zisu and Erni to exercise like this every day, and she felt much healthier. She finally understood why square dancing would be so prosperous in future generations!
Ming Xuan danced happily, most of the women in the harem were disdainful.
But Concubine Liang who brought her granddaughter here to consult about her son and daughter-in-law leaving the palace, after being danced twice by Mingxuan, became inexplicably addicted, and came to dance with her every day.
Concubine Liang has always had a good impression of Mingxuan. After getting in touch with her rarely, now her son and daughter-in-law are filial, and the young couple have a good relationship. Taking this opportunity, she let her behavior go.
Concubine Liang came and lived with her in the same palace. Concubine Hui, who was like a sister in the past few years, was also pulled here under her strong recommendation.
Concubine Hui originally looked down on these twisting and turning dances, but when she thought of the music, she inexplicably started to move.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Liang ran to Yongshou Palace every day, and the music from Yongshou Palace made everyone very curious.
Then Concubine Rong, Concubine Yi, and Concubine Cheng...
"I really feel like I was working in vain before, what a fool! Come and get money!" Dancing and dancing, and then playing cards together, the women who don't expect to be favored get together, there is no dispute, and there is surprisingly harmony.
It's just that apart from dancing, Ming Xuan was not used to this kind of excitement.When dancing, the more people there are, the more fun it is, but these people are too thick-skinned, and they don't even leave after the dance.She had no choice but to recover all the mahjong.
With a dark face, Ming Xuan took ten golden melon seeds and threw them on, angrily said: "Aren't you bothered when you come here every day? Isn't there enough noise in your own palace?"
Concubine Yi grabbed the winning chips and said triumphantly: "Don't bother me! If I had known that Empress is so interesting here, my sister would have come here long ago."
Now that Xiao Jiu is with King Yongjun, he also has the prince's favor.Xiao Wu is even more used by the emperor, and Concubine Yi can't think of a reason not to get along with the imperial concubine.
"Don't you need to bring your grandson? Little Wu Jin is about to give birth, and little Jiu Fujin is also pregnant, don't you care? Do you have any idea about the candidate for Little Eleven's Fujin?" Concubine Hui raised her eyebrows and smiled while grabbing the card ask.
Concubine Yi grabbed the card and sighed: "Don't talk about disappointing things, those debt collectors sound annoying. By the way, Concubine Rong, can you find that bastard who killed Hong Qing before?"
Concubine Rong's face was dark. Before Hongqing accidentally fell into the water, it was Yinzhi who was excited. She suddenly thought of a way to save Zhijun Wang, and then rescued him.
"It's already been dealt with, don't mention it in the future." Hong Qing is Yinzhi's eldest son, how could Concubine Rong know that something happened to him and not intervene?I begged Kangxi directly, and dealt with it together with the child in my stomach.
Even if it's because Yinzhi doesn't understand?Concubine Rong also gritted her teeth and dealt with it.It's not that I don't feel sorry for the child in that bitch's belly, but I just don't want him and his wife to get along and be blamed by his son in the future.It ended up with Tong Guogang's original fate.
Ming Xuan knew about this, so she changed the subject and asked Concubine Liang at the other table: "I heard that Yi Lejia is pregnant again, do you still want to change the date of leaving the palace?"
Concubine Liang replied: "Sister Hui Concubine asked them to go out after giving birth, Yi Lejia is very active, and she can restrain herself in the palace, but when she leaves the palace..."
"If you ask me, Sister Liang is the most comfortable among us people." Cheng Concubine sighed, and played a card, a little confused about what was going on between her son and daughter-in-law.
Say they have a good relationship?Noisy all day long, saying that the relationship is not good, but when he said to give him a side Fujin, he stared anxiously, but fortunately, both of them were filial to him.After a long time, Concubine Cheng thought that other princes also valued Fujin, and it was not impossible for her own daughter-in-law to have children, so she just ignored it.
A group of women gathered together, danced, played cards, and bad-mouthed their sons. They had a very fulfilling life, and 41 years passed without knowing it.
As soon as the first month of the 42nd year arrived, the whole palace began to prepare for the southern tour.
Ming Xuan wanted to accompany her, so other people didn't come to disturb her. Even from the casual words, Ming Xuan understood that most of these people made friends with her for the sake of their children, but she didn't hate it.
The crown prince's reputation became more and more popular, and most of the other elder brothers had no idea of fighting. Naturally, the empresses in the palace were willing to get along with Mingxuan, since there were no major conflicts before anyway.
After the Chinese New Year, the concubine who was supposed to accompany her was found to be pregnant again because she was unwell. Mingxuan told Yinfeng to let Mrs. Fucha come to the palace to take care of her. She also asked Concubine Hui, Concubine Rong and Concubine Yi to help Looking for a babysitter.
"It seems that it is beneficial to make friends with them." Before Mingxuan set off, she was still emotional with Yinfeng.
Yinfeng smiled lightly and said, "If my aunt likes it, I'll go with her. If she doesn't like it, it's fine."
"I've been neighbors for decades, and I don't have any grudges. They all compliment me, so I don't hate it." Ming Xuan shook her head and said, whether she really likes to dance or not, it's all because of her love, and she has nothing to lose.
