Chapter 179 The story of clearing through (88)
Qingchuan Story 88
This year, the atmosphere in the capital was a bit strange. Not to mention the Tong family fell. The eighth master, who was well-known, was seen by everyone, also fell down. Even the emperor who came back from Rehe March, seemed to have fallen ill this time.
Not only did he fall ill, but he also went to Changchun Garden to recuperate.
Changchun Garden is where the emperor is happy to live. In this way, it is actually equivalent to bringing the center of gravity of the entire court.
The Fourth Master took his family and moved back into the Old Summer Palace, which is closest to the emperor.
It was already May and it became hotter. The emperor still wrote down the emperor's memorials, but the dynasty was getting fewer and fewer.
The Fourth Master was a little anxious. Is the emperor's health really bad? Or is it that the snake was drawn out of the hole again?
Lin Yutong, with her big belly, drizzled the steamed cold cake with honey and pushed it to the Fourth Master, "Try this first. The cold cake was passed in the well, with a slight cold and honey delicious."
The Fourth Master looked at Lin Yutong helplessly. After she passed the stage of being so happy, she began to enter another mode and ate wildly. No matter how she ate, she seemed to be unable to eat enough. She just thought about how to cook it all day long. Eight meals a day cannot be considered exaggerated. She didn't count her own food, but she also pulled herself to eat. During this period, he has gained a lot of weight. People are all worried about the emperor's body, and now the court is worried, and he has gained a few pounds. This is either not caring or heartless.
But when I looked down, the cold cake was white and bright, with a layer of honey beans, raisins, candied dates in the middle, and jam was lit on it, and then it was drizzled with honey.
You don’t have to taste it, just look at it and you will know that the taste must be delicious. You didn’t want to eat it, but once you start, you can’t control your mouth. If you don’t have much effort, you will be killed in one plate.
"You can't give me this to you anymore." The Fourth Master said to Lin Yutong.
Lin Yutong pinched the Fourth Master's waist, "I'm watching, I won't tell you to be fat. You don't have a moment of calmness in your heart. If you don't pay attention to your care, will your body still want?"
The Fourth Master couldn't argue with her, so he didn't argue. Now he has learned to do so. Don't argue with women in small matters, anyway, it's right to be able to say nothing.
I had to change the topic and said, "Why did I remember to eat this?"
"It's the Dragon Boat Festival. When I make rice dumplings, I occasionally think of it. I think the cold cake is better than the rice dumplings." Lin Yutong remembers the cold cakes that Lin's mother steamed in May every year. Maybe she is still traveling around, and her daughter's departure is just yesterday. But only God knows that for Lin Yutong, it's really too long. After finally remembering it, I just make a meal. In the Lin family, I can't eat such good rice and can't buy such high-quality dried fruit candied fruits. The method is still the same as Lin's mother's method, but the taste is better for no reason. Needless to say, everyone knows that the ingredients are taken advantage of.
In the fourth master's opinion, there is really no big difference between cold cakes and rice dumplings. The same glutinous rice, honey and sugar. Fojin said it was different, so let's not be the same. He glanced at Lin Yutong's big belly and nodded and said, "Yes, cold cakes are better than rice dumplings."
Lin Yutong gave him a blank look in her heart. This was false when she heard it. But falsehood made people happy. If a man is willing to coax you, it is something worth celebrating.
"This year, there is no order in the palace?" Lin Yutong asked. She had already asked people to send gifts from each family. The family also received a lot of gifts. There are some examples of how to deal with these. She just looked at the gift list. But can the palace banquet be held in the palace? These are all problems. Now I wonder how many people are staring at the Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet? After all, many people haven't seen the emperor for a long time, including the Fourth Master. Even Honghui hasn't seen it.
The Fourth Master shook his head. The emperor had been playing with his true and false methods for many years. No one had ever figured them out. He didn't dare to say that the emperor was real this time. "No matter whether he had the will or not, prepare more things for the Empress and prepare for rewards."
"It's all ready. You can't make any mistakes." Lin Yutong pinched the cherry and stuffed it into her mouth, as if her mouth had never stopped...
When Lin Yutong took a nap, the Fourth Master called Madam Yuan and asked quietly, "Is it really okay for Fujin to eat like this? I'd better look at it and give me some more fruits and vegetables, like the sweet and greasy sugar cake today, or eat less."
Madam Yuan responded helplessly, but in her heart she was helpless about the behavior of Fo Jin who was uncontrollable and had a lot of reason for her.
Before the Fourth Master could hear the Dragon Boat Festival banquet, he was suddenly summoned to the garden by the emperor.
Lin Yutong is now frightened when she hears the emperor calling him. Whether she is called the Fourth Master or Honghui, she feels uneasy. Although she knows the result, how can she not be afraid when facing an old, powerful, and hard-tempered person who can still control the life and death of others?
The Fourth Master patted Lin Yutong comfortably, "It's okay! It's okay. Just go back if you go. Just wait with peace of mind. Otherwise, go around the garden."
"I'll wait in the house." Lin Yutong packed his clothes for him. "I'm old, so I'll follow you. Old kids, old kids, I just treat the emperor as our Hongzhao. I'll be in love with him, spoiled, and give in. It's probably almost done."
I was talking nonsense, but in the end, I didn’t know what I was saying in a mess.
As soon as he looked up, he saw the Fourth Master looking at her with a embarrassed face.
Lin Yutong's face suddenly became a little embarrassed. I guess no one dared to say that to the emperor. She said that her IQ fell straight when she was pregnant. "Go to go. I'm talking nonsense, don't take it seriously."
The Fourth Master looked at Lin Yutong with emotion, hugged her gently, and then turned around and went out. However, when he was on the way, he couldn't help but remember Lin Yutong's words.
Treat the emperor as Hongzhao, in pain, spoiled, and gave in...
He couldn't help but ask the guards around him, "Your father is over 60 years old this year, right?"
The guard Mingjiao An Tai is only in his twenties this year, but he has been with the Fourth Master for seven or eight years. He heard this and said, "Yes! The young one is the father's old son, and he is about the same age as the young nephew."
"Oh?" The Fourth Master turned his head and asked again, "Then how did you get along with your father?"
An Tai scratched his head, "The little father is tough, and now he can still carry the soles of his shoes to chase the small half of the street. But the little man dares not really call his father tired. He always asks him to catch him on purpose and just hit him twice. The old man becomes more angry and stronger."
The Fourth Master nodded and thoughtfully. When he arrived at the door of Changchun Garden, he asked Su Peisheng to give An Tai a hundred taels of silver as a reward for filial son.
The weather was getting hot. The emperor was wearing a sky-blue homely robe, leaning on the couch, and when he came in, he pointed to the stool on one side and asked him to sit down.
The Fourth Master bowed and sat down.
"I'm asking you to come here today. I'm having trouble in my mind these two days, and I'm really a little confused for a moment." The emperor lowered his eyelids, and his eyes never left the book in his hand.
Is this going to listen to what he meant? The Fourth Master didn't know what the emperor wanted to say, but just interrupted: "It was Honghui's marriage? Just the Emperor Ama made the decision. Your son has no objection. Your vision is always good. Not to mention the concubine of his son, even his sister-in-law and younger siblings, there is nothing to choose from. However, Hongyu from the eldest brother's house and Hongchen Hongpu from the second brother's house are about the same age. In the blink of an eye, these young people are going to marry a wife."
The emperor was stunned again. What he wanted to say just now was not this. But when he talked with the fourth brother, it was not surprising that the fourth brother could think of this. After all, the only thing that could be discussed was Honghui's marriage.
"You decide this. I have married all my wife for you and have been fond of you for the rest of my life. When I come to your son, I will not care about it anymore. You can do it yourself in the future." The emperor shook his head.
The Fourth Master was so heartbroken that he heard this. The emperor always gave marriages to the emperor, but now the emperor said he would not care about it, so he would not be afraid. So who dares to take care of this marriage? Without the emperor's marriage, where would the marriage come from?
The Fourth Master smiled and said, "My son's eyes are really afraid that it will delay the child."
The emperor said, "Honghui's marriage, let it go first, there is no hurry. However, your second brother's business..."
Deposed Prince?
The Fourth Master knew that if he asked him to come for nothing, there would definitely be no good things. So the expression on his face became solemn, "What does the Emperor Ahma want? Just go and do it."
The emperor glanced at the Fourth Master, "What do I say, what do you do?"
The Fourth Master felt a little shocked, but he still said with a calm expression: "The Emperor is a relative, can he treat the second brother badly? What's the matter that my son dare not do as he does?"
The emperor snorted coldly and didn't say anything for a moment.
The Fourth Master thought to himself, it looks like Hongzhao, and he is annoyed when he says he is angry and doesn't know anything.
"Look, you said halfway through this, and my son's heart was hung up. You won't say it anymore." The Fourth Master sat over and took the pine nuts on the table and peeled them for the emperor to eat. "You can eat more pine nuts, which is good for your body."
"I'm not old yet!" The emperor threw away the book in his hand and said.
Everyone in the room was shocked.
The pine nut is a longevity fruit, and the Fourth Master has good intentions and said it is good for the body. But the emperor inevitably remembers that it is because he is older that he values longevity more.
Li Dequan and the servants in the room both knelt down.
The Fourth Master almost knelt down and apologized. But somehow, the evil one thought of Hong Zhao, so he smiled and said, "Okay, okay! It's my son's wrong. My son said the wrong thing. The former son Honghui also said that Emperor Ama can eat two big bowls of braised rice, and his son no longer has such a good appetite now. The son's concubine said yesterday that this person's age is not based on age, but on physical condition. There are those 60-year-old men who can go up the mountain to chase rabbits, and some 20-year-old scholars are out of breath when walking. People of sixty-year-olds and twenty-year-olds are in such a state. Emperor Ama has not lost his archery, horses, and archery in recent years. Your physical condition cannot be said to be the same as the fifteenth and sixteenth brothers, but compared with his son, it is still not bad. When the twenty-year-old can marry his daughter-in-law, you can still refer to the marriage."
The twenty-year-old is only a few months old now.
That's really a ten-year-old person, almost a hundred years old.
I didn’t say anything like “Long Live Long Live Long Live Long Live”. If I can live for a hundred years, I will live long.
The emperor felt a little relieved, "You are all too lazy to move. In the early years, when I was in the palace, I looked at you, but you really didn't dare to be lazy. Now, how are you tired and lazy?"
The Fourth Master immediately nodded in agreement and continued to peel the pine nuts to the emperor.
Everyone in the room then felt relieved and stood up.
