On weekdays, even when the prince and princess saw him, they were restrained and did not dare to say one more word or take one more step.
And this little girl is actually as shameless as she is, seductive and naughty.
Not only did he not find this girl annoying, he was actually happy that she was close and real.
"I will ask someone to get you a prescription in a moment. Take it with you when you leave the palace." The emperor tapped the little girl's head.
Jiayin smiled brightly, thanked him quickly, and turned around to say hello, "Second uncle, village chief grandpa, cut melons for the emperor!"
Li Laoer smiled again and bowed his hands to the emperor, then rolled up his sleeves and fished out the ice water bucket. Got the jade melon.
The village chief also took two golden fruits from another bucket.
The chief eunuch quickly took the little eunuch and carried it to a small table.
The jade melon and golden fruit were soaked in ice water, and when they were cut open they felt cold, and the sweet taste spread all over them.
The emperor looked happy and asked: "This year's drought has not affected the fields?"
The village chief calmed down and replied: "Back to the emperor, the weather is indeed dry today and the fields are also short of water, but what can I say? , If everyone is more diligent, this little trouble can be overcome.
"Before, the villagers irrigated the fields three times, and finally saved these jade melons and golden fruits. Although everyone was so tired that their skin was peeling off from the sun, at this time, seeing the fruits in the garden, I felt that the tiredness was not in vain. "
The emperor couldn't help but nodded, and felt a little relieved.
Speaking of difficulties, everyone has them, they happen every year, but the most important thing is to face them and actively solve them.
Isn't he, the emperor, worse than a group of farmers? ?!
Soon, the jade melon and golden fruit were cut.
Because it was done by the eunuch chief himself, there was no need to test the poison.
The emperor picked up a piece of jade melon and bit into it. It was cool and sweet, which made his heart irritable. , disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"What a melon!" This year's melons seem to be sweeter than in previous years! "The emperor couldn't help but praise, which made Li Laoer and the village chief smile. They lined up their white teeth and appeared in rows.
The village chief tried his best to suppress his pride and excitement, and nodded repeatedly, "Your Majesty is so powerful, you can taste it in one bite. . In fact, jasper melon and golden fruit seem to like drought, especially golden fruit, which is frighteningly sweet, like a sugar jar!
"You guys eat too! " "The emperor greeted Li Laoer and the village chief, and finally took a piece of jade melon to Jiayin with his own hands.
When Jiayin saw the chief eunuch standing half-bent, he gave him his piece.
The chief eunuch was shocked. He jumped and wanted to refuse, but the emperor said, "You can eat what the princess rewards you. "
Hey, hey!" "The chief eunuch quickly knelt down and thanked with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you Princess. "
Jiayin took another piece of jade melon and ate it in small bites, like a little squirrel holding a big fruit, with a face of satisfaction and joy.
The emperor was infected and felt that the melon in his hand was sweeter.
He accompanied Jiayin's words, although the questions and answers were a bit childish, made him extremely relaxed, and he ate three pieces of jade melon and two pieces of golden fruit without knowing it.
Occasionally, he also asked Li Laoer and the village chief how the crops were in the fields. , are there many guests in the valley, and are there many fruits in the orchard this year...
Li Laoer and the village chief responded carefully, without any exaggeration, and were truthful, saying what they had to say, it would also allow the emperor to understand the reality of the people outside. One day.
At this time, a young eunuch suddenly came in from outside, moved to the steward's side, and whispered a few words.
When the emperor saw it, he asked: "What's the matter?" "
The chief eunuch smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen and the Third Princess have brought you sour plum soup.
The emperor frowned slightly, but still said: "Let them come in. " "
The chief eunuch went out to invite someone in person, and soon led a beautiful woman in her thirties to come in.
The beautiful woman was tall, wearing a bright red palace dress, and a red gold phoenix crown on her head, which made her look more attractive . A bit sharp and serious, less soft and warm.
Next to the beautiful woman is a six or seven-year-old girl, a little taller than Jiayin, wearing a goose-yellow slanted shirt and a snow satin skirt. The little girl
's facial features are slightly ordinary, but because of the red gold eight-treasure necklace hanging around her neck, she adds a bit of "noble" air. Li Laoer and the village chief quickly knelt down and kowtowed. Jiayin also jumped off the chair, but before he could kneel down, he stepped on the corner of his skirt and fell directly to the ground.
The emperor laughed loudly, bent down to help the red-faced little girl, and said with a smile: "Last time, your adoptive father said that you wanted to lose weight, but now it seems that your weight loss results are not very good."
After that, he patted her again. Jiayin put his knees on his knees and said, "Okay, you have given a great gift to the queen by prostrating yourself. If you are blessed, it will be considered as a blessing."
Jiayin quickly knelt down to salute the queen and princess. The queen stretched out her hand to support Jiayin and said with a smile. : "Is this Princess Kangle? It's true that Yuxue is cute. No wonder the Marquis didn't want to get married and have children, so he just gave the Marquis' mansion to this girl."
The words were said casually, but the meaning didn't sound like a compliment.
The kneeling Li Laoer and the village chief touched each other out of the corner of their eyes, and they both felt excited.
However, Jiayin seemed not to have heard the news. He climbed back to the chair next to the emperor and sat down. He talked to the queen innocently, "Empress, do you also know my adoptive father? Then do you know when my adoptive father will come back?
" When his father left, Fu Niuer held him in her arms and refused to let him go. The adoptive father said that he was going to kill the enemy and get back half of the river and the sea for Uncle Huang! He also said that if he doesn't come back, he will ask Fu Niu'er to find Uncle Huang. Fu Niu'er dreamed of her adoptive father last night..."
As she spoke, her eyes became red.
I have to say that the fat girl pursed her lips . , the look of wanting to cry but not daring to cry was really heartbreaking.
The emperor immediately pulled off the veil to wipe the little girl's tears and coaxed, "Fu Niu'er, don't cry. Your adoptive father sent a message back yesterday, saying I will return to Jiangnan in half a month. "
"Really? Jiayin was pleasantly surprised and immediately smiled, "Fu Niu'er just learned how to steam egg custard. I'll make it for my adoptive father when he comes back."
"When my adoptive father comes back, my father will come back, and my uncle Dayong will come back. Grandma won't have to stand at the entrance of the village every day to look around, and my mother won't have to cry secretly at night!"
The little girl said quickly and urgently, obviously very happy. .
The emperor sighed inwardly and gently rubbed the little girl's hair.
Speaking of which, the Li family are just ordinary people. They even suffered a lot of hardships due to the delay in going south, and the place they were assigned to stay was a gravel beach.
If you put it to others, I'm afraid even if you don't scold him as the emperor, you should complain a few words.
But the Li family never said "no" to him. They worked hard to open up wasteland, grow melons and fruit trees. Even if they became a fiefdom, they still paid taxes, money and grain.
Now the family has sent their children and grandchildren to join the Marquis on the battlefield to kill the enemy.
I really gave up all my loyalty and strength for Tianwu, for this useless emperor who had lost half of his empire.
Even if it's very small...
Look at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the rich and powerful families in Mandu City, they only know how to get benefits from him all day long.
Compared to the Li family, it seems extremely shameful.
He thought for a while and then told the queen, "Don't talk about the Marquis not getting married in the future. All the powerful people in the family can count them all. No one can match him. It makes sense for the Marquis to like the Li family. Don't stop anyone."
"In addition, ask someone to collect some cloth jewelry. Remember to choose the right ones and give them to the Li family to commend them for their loyalty and filial piety. "
The queen's eyes flashed, but she still stood up and responded.
Li Laoer and the village chief quickly kowtowed to express their gratitude.
Jiayin jumped off the chair this time, landed firmly on the ground, squatted down and thanked the emperor.
The emperor smiled when he saw her, and even She thought it was funny, "It's just like what your adoptive father said, Fu Niu'er is just a little money addict, and she will be happy when she gets good things. "
After chatting for a while, the queen and princess ate two pieces of jade melon.
Li Laoer and the village chief kept their heads down and couldn't raise their eyes, so they were about to leave.
Jiayin also felt that they had enough sense of presence and planned to meet. I accepted it.
I didn't want to, but the queen suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the third princess has never had any playmates. It is rare for Princess Kangle to come into the palace. Let her stay for a few days to accompany the third princess, right?" "
