Fortunate to know Qing peach noodles

Chapter 187 A Novel Movement

At the end of the year, every household has a sense of fulfillment and busyness.

Busy preparing new year's goods, busy cleaning the house, and busy offering sacrifices to ancestors.

The Wei family is no exception.

Mrs. Xu helped to take care of everything inside and outside the Weifu, and the old lady specially asked Aunt Mei to help.

The old madam made such a decision that it was becoming more and more inappropriate for Mrs. Xu to be the head of the house.

There is no need for Wei Cishu to worry about family affairs, these days there is no need to go to the morning court, and there is nothing to do in the official office, so Wei Cishu has a rare leisure time, either resting at home, or going from house to house, drinking tea and meeting friends.

Compared with him, Wei Qing is busier.

Because she has to enter the palace every three to five times.

Once Wei Qing entered the palace, Yilan was the only one in Fengxiao Courtyard.The two of them have depended on each other for such a long time, every time Wei Qing enters the palace, Yi Lan looks lonely.

Although she didn't say anything, it didn't mean that Wei Qing couldn't feel it.

On New Year's Eve, Wei Qing had to go to the palace to take care of the emperor.

Yilan changed her clothes and hair as usual, and after tidying up, Wei Qing said: "After the New Year, we will go to the market and buy two more maids."

Upon hearing this, Yi Lan beamed with joy, and said, "That's great, so that someone will be with the servant."

Wei Qing said: "Go and change into more comfortable clothes, and come with me into the palace today."

"Huh?" Yilan was stunned.

Wei Qing said casually: "Last time, I reported to the emperor, and the emperor allowed me to bring a medicine attendant into the palace." She glanced at Yilan, "What are you doing in a daze, and don't change clothes."

Yilan came to her senses and happily went back to her room to change.

Entering a place like the palace, a little maid like her would never even think about it in her life.But Wei Qing didn't forget her, and still remembered to bring her into the palace.

Otherwise, today's New Year's Eve, when Wei Qing entered the palace and Yilan stayed in the courtyard alone, she would be too lonely and deserted.

Of course, Yilan was in the capacity of a medicine attendant, and had to be granted permission by the emperor to enter the palace.Otherwise, with the status of Wei Qing, he would not be able to bring the maid in.

Yilan quickly tidied up, took the initiative to take Wei Qing's medicine box, and walked ahead excitedly with the medicines in the medicine box.

When she arrived at the emperor's place, Yilan was very careful to help Wei Qing. The master and servant had already cultivated a tacit understanding, and she would send Wei Qing to Wei Qing as soon as possible, making Wei Qing more handy than before.

Wei Qing said: "Your Majesty should take advantage of this month's rest to exercise more physically."

The emperor looked at Wei Qing and said, "The imperial doctor said that I should rest as much as possible, but why do you want me to exercise? It's cold outside, how should I exercise?"

Wei Qing said: "Your Majesty can also exercise in the bedroom, call the guard to come over, hug His Majesty's legs, and His Majesty can also do sit-ups."

"Sit-ups?" The emperor found it new and asked Wei Qing to teach him.

Wei Qing asked the internal guard to come over, hugged and pressed the emperor's legs and feet according to her movements, and asked the emperor to sit up and lie down with his head in his hands, lie down and sit up again.

As a result, the emperor couldn't get up after doing it a few times... He couldn't help but lose interest and felt very boring.

Wei Qing squinted his eyes and said, "Besides this, there are also some interesting exercises. My daughter, go and prepare. When you are ready, please ask the emperor to try."

The emperor agreed and waved her down to prepare.

Coming out of the emperor's bedroom, Yilan could finally appreciate the pavilions and pavilions in the palace to her heart's content, all the way in admiration.

When they arrived at Princess Jingyi's place, the palace servants prepared tea, fruit and snacks, but Wei Qing didn't bother to eat, and asked, "Is there any bamboo in the palace?"

Jingyi asked, "What do you want bamboo for?"

"The emperor doesn't like sports. If you have materials, you can make some sports equipment."

When Jing Yi heard it, she was of course very cooperative.How could she not understand the emperor, she kept saying that the weather was cold and not suitable for exercising, but in fact she was just lazy and not interested.

But this month should be the most leisure time for the emperor in a year. If he doesn't exercise at this time, when will he wait?

In addition to bamboo, Wei Qing also needs horse tail hair, pigeon feathers, and some wood.

Jingyi called all the skilled craftsmen in the palace, and according to Wei Qing's instructions, they made things with these materials.

Bamboo itself is very flexible and can be bent in a large arc. Wei Qing asked a craftsman to wrap a section of bamboo in a circle, then tie it up, and polished the handle so that it was smooth and round.

A neat row of small holes is pierced in the bamboo ring, and the ponytail is threaded through it and stretched, and fixed in an orderly manner.So basically it becomes a simple badminton racket.

As for the badminton, use a small light wooden ball to tie neat and clean white pigeon feathers.

When there were no palace attendants, Jingyi sat relaxed on the soft rug, holding a racket and holding the shuttlecock in his hands, quite amused, and asked, "Is this how you play it?"

Wei Qing said: "It's boring to play alone, but this requires two or four people to play."

When the emperor came to the imperial garden, he saw a half-person-high net stretched horizontally in the open space of the garden. Wei Qing and Jing Yi were playing badminton back and forth, surrounded by a group of court ladies, watching and cheering.

Jingyi was out of breath, and found that this was indeed a sport that exercised people without losing fun.Not long after, a thin layer of sweat broke out on her body.

Jing Yi said to the emperor: "Father, Wei Qing found someone to make this, do you want to try it too?"

It was also the first time for the emperor to see it, and he thought it was very fresh, so he came over to try it.

Wei Qing was more familiar with tactics, so Jing Yi asked her to fight the emperor.

Wei Qing explained the rules to the emperor, said the same thing, did not look flattering at all, said: "Your Majesty, this is a competition, please forgive me for not giving in."

The emperor smiled and said, "I still want you to be a little girl, wouldn't that be invincible?"

Such lively and interesting events rarely happened in the palace, Ming Fei heard about it, and came to watch with the empress and several concubines.

The emperor rolled up his dragon sleeves, held a racket, and when he was fighting Wei Qing on the court, the concubines cheered him on. After a few games, he was very motivated.

And Wei Qing said clearly that he would not let him, but he was very careful, neither let the emperor lose face, nor let the emperor lose face.The emperor is not someone who would easily admit defeat, so he has been deadlocked.

In the middle of the afternoon, the emperor played heartily, and was so energetic that he even took off his coat.

He was sweating profusely, and the feeling of prosperity was not inferior to that when Wei Qing gave him the first needle to bleed him.

The emperor was very happy today. When the audience was over, he called Wei Qing to stop him. While the guards around him put on the dragon robe, he said, "Who taught you these novel things?"

Wei Qing said: "I learned from others in the countryside before, the emperor should not dislike it."

"The dictionary of Wei sent you to the countryside?" Although he was asking, there was no trace of surprise on the emperor's face.
