After doctor Liu Liang continuously adjusted the prescriptions and appropriate acupuncture for Taishanghuang, Taishanghuang's dragon body is much better than before.
Although I still can't stay in bed and walk, it's not as difficult as before to turn over.
Now the life of the Supreme Emperor is leisurely, listening to a little song, watching a play to amuse grasshoppers, raising birds and so on, but the house of internal affairs is tossing people on their backs.
No, recently the Supreme Emperor has fallen in love with listening to books again.
There are not many actors in the palace, because they think the words are not good, so they have to find them from the market. These days, the sound of drums and sanxian can always be heard in Qianqing palace.
Li Dequan walked in from the outside, the Supreme Emperor was teasing the fish in the blue and white porcelain pot on the kang table. The pot was made in the shape of a rockery, and several palm-sized lotus were raised. Under the lotus leaves, there were two small koi swimming in the water.
At first glance, it looks like a painting, but it is a new tribute from the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the entertainment of the Supreme Emperor.
"Your Majesty, Lord Liu and the others are here again."
At this time, the blind storyteller was talking about something exciting, and this time he was talking about Wu Song beating Jiang Menshen drunk. When Wu Song raised his fist as big as Haiwan, the blind man slapped the sheepskin drum twice, and then knocked on the board several times. It was also unclear whether the Supreme Emperor was listening, but he shifted his gaze from the kang table to the blind man.
Li Dequan could only wait for this paragraph to finish before repeating the words again.
"What are they doing here? Do you find it annoying?" The Supreme Emperor dropped the jade pole in his hand, and it landed on the kang table with a crisp sound.
Don't look at the blind man, his ears are so sensitive, he was so frightened that he fell to his knees immediately, not daring to speak anymore. It wasn't until Li Dequan saw that the Supreme Emperor looked unhappy, and gave the eunuch next to him a wink, and the little eunuch went up to give him instructions, that the storytelling sounded again.
Li Dequan smiled wryly. Of course, these old ministers are not too annoying. Civil servants are all famous, and their favorite thing to do is to fight against the emperor. Now that the new emperor has finally given him the opportunity, people now feel that it is a good time to show their loyalty and admonishment, and show their concern for the country and the people, so how can they give up so easily.
The matter started with Emperor Jin'an's reluctance to build a harem. Although Emperor Jin'an had already refused several times, some ministers in the court still did not give up.
Even the fact that the empress is pregnant and Emperor Jin'an rests in Kunning Palace every day has become an argument that they can criticize. At first it was earnest, but later it was crying bitterly. It is a pity that Emperor Jin'an was very stubborn. You say what you do, and he does his. If the emperor refuses to agree, the minister can't find a woman to force her into the palace.
Under such circumstances, some people inevitably thought of the Supreme Emperor who lived in the Qianqing Palace, so the old drama was staged again. Recently, the steps of the Qianqing Palace were almost trampled bald.
The Supreme Emperor still kept his previous attitude and ignored them, but he couldn't stand these veterans coming every day. In particular, there are a few old ministers who are not too big in official positions, but they are old and respected, and they are the most persistent.
They cried as soon as they came, some of these old men were older than the Supreme Emperor, their hair and beard were all white, and they cried with tears and snot running down their noses, it was unbearable to watch.
When this happens, the Supreme Emperor will usually take it all down, saying that he will reprimand the emperor. But he turned his head and pretended to reprimand him, whether Emperor Jin'an should not listen or not, these old ministers went back and waited, why couldn't they wait for the emperor's movement. As a courtier, you can't say that the Supreme Emperor is shameless, so you can only come again.
No, here it is again.
"Go and tell them that I have not been feeling well for the past few days, and I have already fallen asleep."
The corner of Li Dequan's mouth twitched, not knowing whether to respond or not. That should be it, he really has no face to go out and say, the sound of drums and clappers inside can be heard outside. No, he didn't dare not.
But whoever Li Dequan was, he was not stupid to be able to serve the Supreme Emperor for decades. Going out with Fuchen in his arms, he raised his eyes and saw his apprentice, Little Mencius, and beckoned for Little Mencius to come over, and threw the matter to him.
As for how Little Mencius dismissed those old ministers, I won't go into details. Turning around, Li Dequan came back, the Supreme Emperor seemed a little annoyed, and said to him: "Go and tell the emperor, I want to move the palace, to Xiyuan."
It is not a trivial matter for the Supreme Emperor to move to the palace, especially with so many concubines in the Supreme Empress Palace.
Xiyuan was repaired earlier, but the Supreme Emperor didn't mention it, so no one dared to mention it. After living in this way for more than half a year, others still think that the Supreme Emperor intends to live in this Qianqing Palace forever, who would have thought that he would bring it up at this time.
When the son naturally wanted to stay, so after receiving the message, Emperor Jin'an came soon.
When he came, he said a few words to keep him away, and the emperor was very disrespectful: "You are an old man, I don't know what your plan is, you messed around in front of me, and all the things that turned around were found on my head. Sickness can't be idle!"
The words of the Supreme Emperor have been said like this, and Emperor Jin'an can only obey orders and order the people below to prepare for the Supreme Emperor's move to the palace.
This move of the palace is easy to say, but it cannot be completed in a day or two. It will take some time to prepare for the preliminary stage. First, the Xiyuan side needs to be cleaned and arranged. This is not just one or two places, but dozens of palaces. The concubines who lived in which palace and who lived in which palace had to be properly allocated.
If the allocation is not good, or if the concubine is dissatisfied with the place, there are so many things in this woman's family, and there is no telling when it will be delayed.
Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace are very lively recently, those who have shame in front of the Supreme Emperor all go to the Supreme Emperor, and those who are shameless use their identity to find Yaoniang, the queen of the middle palace.
But Yaoniang doesn't have the time to worry about these things at the moment, Doctor Liu Liang came to ask her for a peace pulse before, and found out that she was pregnant with twins.
This incident shocked Kunning Palace quite a bit. It wasn't that they had never asked for a Ping'an pulse before, nor had they mentioned anything about twins, so why are they becoming twins now. It was only later that I found out that the moon was too young to feel the pulse, and I had to wait until the moon was old, and Yaoniang was pregnant for more than five months.
Apart from being surprised, she was naturally delighted. You must know that the last time the Zhao royal family gave birth to twins was when Emperor Gaozong was born. If the queen can really give birth to twins safely this time, this blessing will be truly enviable.
In such a situation, the queen naturally has no time to care about who the concubines live in which palace.
Just when the people below were busy because of the Supreme Emperor's words, the Supreme Emperor seemed a little unhappy. He stopped listening to the book, Yu'er stopped being funny, and the whole Qianqing Palace became much quieter.
Today, Xiaobao came to Qianqing Palace. As soon as he walked into the gate of the palace, he felt a little uncomfortable because of the rare quietness of the Qianqing Palace.
"Why didn't Grandpa Huang ask anyone to sing an opera and tell a story?"
Li Dequan spoke to the side: "The Supreme Emperor is tired, and he is always tired of listening. Does His Highness want to hear it? If so, this old servant will report to the Supreme Emperor and arrange a session for you."
In the past, Xiaobao always came to Qianqing Palace to accompany the Supreme Emperor to watch operas and listen to books in his spare time. As a child, he didn't know if he could understand it, but he enjoyed it anyway. The Taishanghuang also listened to it with gusto, and paired it with some tea, fruit and so on.
The Supreme Emperor was inside, so he naturally heard what was going on outside, and before Xiaobao came in with Li Dequan, he heard him say in a fit of anger: "Since the prince wants to listen, he will arrange it, and he deliberately told me, I am not that stubborn Unrepentant old stubbornness."
"Hey, old slave, let's get ready."
With a smile on his face, Li Dequan ran faster than a rabbit, as if he was afraid that the emperor would repent. Over the past few days, the Supreme Emperor has been unhappy, and everyone in the Qianqing Palace lives with tense scalps. Therefore, it is most useful to invite the prince, so that the Supreme Emperor will be energetic.
Li Dequan passed on the words here, while the Supreme Emperor moved along with Xiaobao to the side hall. Now the side hall has changed drastically, and a small stage has been specially set up. I can't sing big plays, but it's okay for a few actors to sing small scenes.
The blind storyteller was quickly brought here, which was unprecedented, who would have thought that such a person would be invited to the palace to tell the storyteller to the Supreme Emperor. The blind man has also stayed in the palace for quite a while, and up to now he feels like he is dreaming.
The blind man over there sat down and hugged the sanxian, and here tea and fruit plates were brought up, and there were also a few snacks that Xiaobao liked to eat.
In the past, Little Treasure was always greedy for dim sum made by cooks from the south of Yueyue's house. It's not impossible for Prince Jin's Mansion to invite them, but it was difficult to find good ones for a while. After entering the palace, there is nothing lacking. The Supreme Emperor gave orders, and the best white case cook in Jiangnan area was sent to the palace.
The book has already started talking, and I deliberately started talking after what Xiaobao heard last time.
On the big kang under the south window, there are people, old and young, with tea on hand. Xiao Bao took a piece of dim sum and bit it, the Supreme Emperor also picked up a piece and ate it according to his mouth.
"Grandfather, Father said that you are going to move to Xiyuan, do you really want to go?"
"Of course it is true, is it false?"
"Then do you want Xiaobao to accompany Grandpa Huang?"
The Supreme Emperor glanced at his little grandson: "You can accompany him, or you can not accompany him."
"My grandson wants to go with the emperor's grandpa, but I can't delay studying here in the study. Besides, I also don't want my second treasure to have my father and queen mother. Now that the mother and queen are pregnant, I am really worried about being a son. "
So you can rest assured that you are the emperor's grandfather? But the emperor is ashamed to say such words, he is not a child.
Little Treasure didn't seem to notice it, and continued: "This palace is so lively, there are many people, and the place is spacious. Although the scenery in the West Garden is beautiful, it is a bit remote after all. Let the grandson think about it, it is unnecessary to move there. It’s enough to go to play for one or two months in a year. And it’s close to the water, so it’s not easy to live there, and it’s too humid for a long time, which is not suitable for the emperor’s dragon body.”
"How do you know that it's not easy to live by the water? Who told you?"
"Father, Father is very worried about Grandpa's dragon body, but Father doesn't say anything."
The Supreme Emperor snorted.
"Actually, Father doesn't want you to move over, but he doesn't dare to disobey."
"So you were sent to disobey the emperor's grandfather?"
Xiaobao didn't answer the question, and continued: "Xiaobao also doesn't want to part with the emperor's grandpa. In fact, she also doesn't want to part with the empress. Yesterday, she was still talking about how the emperor's grandpa would send food to you in the future if he moved away. She said that the people are all family members. People live in one place, there are no four generations under one roof, but three generations under one roof. Although they live in the palace, they cannot live under one roof, but they come here as soon as they lift their feet. If you go to Xiyuan, we will visit you You have to run out of the palace once. People in this palace are different from ordinary people when they go out of the palace. They are always shouting and hugging. Once or twice is enough. If there are too many times, it will inevitably be lazy, and it will delay the fulfillment of filial piety."
The Supreme Emperor became curious after listening. Although he rarely met the daughter-in-law, he could roughly sketch out a general appearance through Xiaobao's words.
Gentle, virtuous, and good-natured, of course this is on the surface.
Let the Supreme Emperor say that he is quite considerate, always right to his advantage, but just rambling, like an elderly old woman. Because he was born in a small family and has little knowledge, he likes to use the common people as an example. His majestic Zhao royal family can be compared to ordinary ordinary people in the folk, and he is not one of those lonely old men who just count on their children to be filial.
He is too emperor!
But the emperor likes this kind of thing, insisting on not accepting his concubine, just put this kind of little old woman by his side, won't it be annoying? !
"Your mother is such a chatterbox!" The Supreme Emperor said in distaste.
Xiao Bao didn't take it seriously: "Father talks less, but mother talks more and doesn't seem deserted."
The Supreme Emperor snorted and did not speak, and went to eat the peanuts from the fruit plate.
"Then Grandpa, are you still moving to the palace?"
"What's the matter, your mother has a big belly and can't preside over the palace affairs, which makes those concubines and concubines come to me every day, and I'm almost bored to death. Let's talk about it after your mother is born." Suddenly, the Supreme Emperor seemed to feel that he was not persistent, and said again: "Your mother has honored the emperor's grandfather a few times, she is pregnant, and I moved out, and put it outside, maybe there will be a conflicting statement." , Let those ministers use it to make a fuss again."
Xiao Bao smiled and said, "The grandson just said that Grandpa Huang has a cold face but a warm heart. He is the same as the emperor father. If the mother doesn't believe it, she will always be a little afraid of you."
Who is like the emperor, he is not as thoughtful as the emperor! I kept everything in my heart, and I sent the little one to deal with him.
At this time, there was a burst of yelling from outside the hall, which was mixed with the yelling of a child, whistling in at a lightning speed.
"Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang, Erbao is here, and Erbao is here to see you. Well, big brother, you come to see Grandpa Huang, but he didn't call me, but came secretly by himself. Are you secretly carrying me behind your back? What is delicious? Got it? Show me now."
"We didn't eat anything."
"Really?" Er Bao looked at Xiao Bao with unbelieving eyes, and then at the Supreme Emperor.
Both nodded solemnly.
Er Bao pointed to the peanut shells on the table, looked at the two of them again, and said with sharp eyes: "You guys obviously ate it, there are peanut shells, and you still have pastry crumbs around your mouth, brother."
Xiaobao said in embarrassment: "This is not really delicious."
Here, Er Bao and Xiao Bao were entangled in delicious food, and the Taishang Emperor subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, for fear that the little grandson would catch him and steal his mouth.
Because of his beard, the Supreme Emperor was quite worried, and he even signaled Li Dequan to look at him with his eyes. It wasn't until Li Dequan shook his head at him that he was relieved and turned his attention to the two grandsons.
One is extremely intelligent, and the other has a tiger head and a tiger head.
Then the Su family will be born!
Inexplicably, the Supreme Emperor actually felt a kind of anticipation for the pair of unborn grandchildren.
Forget it, he waited until the grandchildren were born before leaving, it was always a celebration. What the Supreme Emperor didn't expect was that he would never be able to move to Xiyuan in his whole life, because that pair of villains was more torturous than the pair of villains in front of him.
