Leisurely Four Fortunes

Chapter 103

Xiaoyi's back was sore and her back was hurting. As she got married for a long time, she kept discovering the magical effect of Taishang Laojun's elixir.

First of all, no matter how much Fourth Master tossed about, his skin was still as white as jade after waking up.And it seems that the elixir is also good for her child.She knew about Honghui's photographic memory earlier than fourth master.

She knew her son, although Hong Hui was smart in his previous life, he was definitely not as smart as he is now.

So she began to thank Taishang Laojun sincerely for letting her children benefit.

But last night, because of Hong Hui's stimulation, fourth master was too much trouble.He didn't let her go until the midnight drum sounded.Now, touching the pillow under her body, she felt mixed feelings.

"Master, someone from the Fifth Baylor House has reported that Baylor Fujin has just been activated."

Xiaoyi hurriedly took the last hairpin, put on her cloak and walked outside.

Just when he was about to go out, Honghui walked towards him.The little guy just woke up, his face was flushed and his eyes were sleepy.Seeing Er Niang, her squinted eyes immediately widened.

"My mother, what happened to you last night?"

Xiaoyi felt ashamed for a while, how could she tell her son such a thing.It's all the fourth master's fault. It would have been better if she had been let go.

"Did Hui'er sleep well last night?"

"What happened to my mother?"

Xiaoyi suddenly discovered that it is not good for her son to be too smart.This is only three years old, and he can't get past it.

"There was a mouse in the room last night."

Honghui understood, he had never seen Ama doting on other women.It's just that Er Niang was bullied too hard, and his heart hurts as a son.

"That's a big mouse, Hui'er will drive him out next time."

The fourth master who was dressed obviously paused, this brat, but he opened the curtain without changing his face: "Fujin, let's go for a walk. There are two wild ginseng plants in the warehouse, you pick one and take it with you." .”

Fourth Master's stuff, don't use it for nothing.Xiaoyi leaned over slightly: "I am awake."

Leaving Mammy Wu to look after the house, Xiaoyi ordered someone to prepare the car, picked up a big one and took it with her.Shuying's belly is too big, and the imperial doctor said that she should pay special attention during delivery.

Sure enough, fourth master's ginseng worked. The imperial doctor sliced ​​it up and handed it to her to suck. After two days and one night, Shuying finally gave birth to a fat boy.

"Master, I heard from the nurse next to Belle Fujin that the little elder brother was born very strong and his hair is very long."

Xiaoyi let out a long sigh of relief. With her son, Shuying finally gained a firm footing.Just listening to Concubine Yi's reward, one can tell that she is very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

Thinking of Concubine Yi, she unconsciously thought of Wu Yashi who was also in the Forbidden City.Tomorrow is another day to greet you, and you should prepare something to express your respect.

"Master, the remaining ginseng can be used to make up for Er Niang."

The fourth master pondered, he was busy with affairs in the previous court, and he hadn't seen Wu Ya's family for a long time.Moreover, as an adult prince, he paid too much attention to Huang Ama's harem, and he couldn't explain it even if he was found out.

Although she has no feelings, she is always his mother-in-law in name.Honoring a ginseng is nothing.

"Just do what Fujin says."

After getting the permission, it didn't take long for Xiaoyi to enter the palace.It's already May, and the palace is full of flowers and willows, which is the season with the best scenery.

Along the way, Yao'er couldn't stop asking this and that.Unlike the eunuchs who passed by the court ladies and eunuchs who were secretive and disciplined, Xiaoyi was very relaxed and explained to her in a low voice.

"That's Xifu crabapple. We also have a crabapple in our yard, but it's not as big as it."

Hong Hui was very quiet and refused the nanny, he insisted on being led away by Er Niang.

There are rules in the palace, ordinary people are not allowed to enter the cold palace.The last time Xiaoyi was able to go in, it was also a kindness specially bestowed by the imperial concubine.

According to her friendship with the imperial concubine, this grace is not difficult to obtain.But she didn't want to make things difficult for herself, so of course she wanted to be a four-star Fujin who strictly abided by the rules, and she didn't want to visit Wu Yashi easily.

"Your mother, this is specially brought for her by our master. After all, it's mother and son, let's make up for her."

The three children went to the kang, and they haven't seen each other for half a month. Yao'er and Yinyin have a lot of whispers to say.Honghui considers himself an adult and doesn't want to hear the secrets between little girls.So he sat down next to his mother, grabbing the gold cakes on the table one by one with his little hands.

The corner of the imperial concubine's mouth rose, and she turned the plate of gold silk cake around.Turn around from the empty side, and there is another whole plate of pastries in front of Honghui.

"It's not like you don't know what she looks like now."

Xiaoyi was serious: "Although Erniang is a little puffy now, her body is very poor. This ginseng is a great tonic, and it just fits."

"Okay, it's all about your filial piety. I'll order someone to boil it for her and send it over to serve her."

"Then I would like to thank the imperial concubine."

The imperial concubine turned her head: "They are both the mothers of the two children, and they are still so naughty. The stable and prudent Sifujin that outsiders say looks like this."

"Isn't this aimed at you!"

After talking about the important things above her head, Xiaoyi also relaxed, and chatted with the imperial concubine about the latest news.

"Wuge and Duoxihui followed to the south, and I don't know how they are doing now."

The imperial concubine took out a letter from the hidden compartment: "This is from Long Kedo. The army is in a state of invincibility now. Let's wait for them to come back and increase their ranks."

Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief, it was always inconvenient to send messages outside the capital.It is much more convenient for the imperial concubine to control the palace power, so she can finally rest assured.

"Have you met the elder brother of the old five family? I heard that he is a particularly strong little elder brother?"

Xiaoyi nodded, "The little elder brother is indeed very strong, and he weighs eight catties. Tomorrow he will be washed three times, and the Queen Mother must be very happy."

The imperial concubine took a sip of her tea: "That's right, apart from Concubine Yi, the happiest person in the palace is her old man. Yesterday she called me, calling a few Mongolian Fujin from Sijiu City to accompany her to relieve boredom."

Xiaoyi just listened and didn't say much.It is already an open secret in Sijiu City that the Queen Mother likes the Mongols.It's just that compared to the late Empress Dowager, she is just a decoration, so she can't do much.

"It's not a big deal, the queen mother actually called the one from Longkodo."

Speaking of this, the imperial concubine looked helpless.Xiaoyi was taken aback, and it took a long time to realize, "Is it the one named Qiqige?"

"That's right, before Longkodo left, he insisted on handing over the power of the housekeeper in the courtyard to her. If it wasn't for what happened in the Prince Wang Sun's mansion of the Tong family, he would have to carry her into a side Fujin."

"You don't have to worry too much, Qiqige should be a measured person."

The noble concubine pinched the veil: "No, at least her surname is Borzigit. It's better than the deceitful servant from Hesheli's mansion."

Only then did Xiaoyi realize that the noble concubine had a grudge against the Hesheli Mansion.She understands her emotions very well. No matter how unruly Longkodo is, if the Hesheli family can be strict, then their master's concubine will not climb onto the son-in-law's bed.

After the Si'er incident, Longkodo became the laughing stock of the whole capital.The noble concubine was in a hurry, so of course she would have resentment towards the Hesheli Mansion.

"Guimamu, eat cakes and don't get angry."

The imperial concubine simply hugged Hong Hui on her lap: "Gui Mamu is not angry, anyway, that dead slave won't be able to dance for two days."

In Jingren Palace, the two chatted enthusiastically.

In the Qianqing Palace of the previous dynasty, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were discussing intensely.Some people think that they should spare the Japanese pirates, so as to show their greatness.

Unlike the straightforwardness of Duke Philip, the Tokugawa shogunate is well versed in euphemism.The Yamato nation, when facing the strong, has always bent its waist to a standard ninety degrees.Therefore, the letter of credence for the summation this time is very sincere, and it completely brought Emperor Kangxi to the same height as their Baqi God.

Kangxi was a little moved, he called himself a benevolent king.Dongying is a small country, so there is really no need to haggle over with them.

Fourth master watched his nose, nose, and heart, he never forgot those short, dirty, black-haired, yellow-skinned people who rushed to Zijin City in the Year of the Gengzi.He remembers that greedy expression, his nodding and bowing attitude towards foreigners.

This is a nation that cares about eating but not fighting, and the more kind they are to them, the more arrogant they are.If they beat and beat all the time, they will always bow their knees.

It's just his own opinion, after all, it won't make a big deal.So before that, he took several turns and contacted several Hanchens, especially the Hanchens who were born in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong.

Many of them had their homes once invaded by Japanese pirates.They have witnessed all kinds of burning, killing and looting by Japanese pirates.A little provocation, that arrogance will not allow them to ignore it.

Sure enough, Li Guangdi tactfully raised his objection again.

"My ancestral home is Quanzhou, and I have been invaded by Japanese pirates many times. The tenants and merchants have no wealth. The Japanese pirates are so rich that they all come from the land of my celestial dynasty, which really makes me sad."

The corners of Yinzhen's mouth twitched, as expected of an old fox, he really understood people's thoughts.Even if he is a Manchu, he has to admit that the upbringing of the Han people is much better than those of the Manchu clan and nobles who only know how to enclose land and collect money.

Sure enough, when they heard the money, the princes all fell silent.Kangxi's eyelids are not so shallow, but he has a clever mind.

As a minister he single-handedly promoted, Kangxi immediately understood what Li Guangdi meant.The Japanese pirates have robbed so many good things, and now if they want to ask for peace, they should spit it out first.

Sure enough, someone took the lead, and someone followed.A censor who was bought by the fourth master also stood up and made a generous statement.

"Throughout the ages, there has always been a saying about old coins. I am a state in the Qing Dynasty, and the emperor has been a wise king through the ages. The small country in Dongying should pay coins every year to show its loyalty and admiration for the emperor."

The eyes of the people in the court are bright, and they are not too pedantic to be an official for thousands of miles.Immediately, a large group of people followed, explaining the various costs of sending people to mediate and sending troops to fight.

The wisdom of the people gathered together, and soon formed a unified view: to collect protection fees from Japan.

Kangxi waved his hand, ready to play.

The six ministries quickly drew up regulations, and the Tokugawa shogunate paid 100 million taels of silver to the Qing Dynasty every year, including military expenses.And do not disturb the border in the future, otherwise the Qing Dynasty has the power to defend the country at any time.

The imperial envoy who delivered the decree deliberately slowed down.By the time they arrived, the Tokugawa shogunate was under attack from both sides of the domestic downfall forces and Duke Philip, and it was almost unable to bear the pressure.

No matter what the conditions are, they have to hurry up and get listed on the backing of Qing Dynasty!
