If someone else tells Yao Yanyan how your stomach is getting smaller, Yao Yanyan will be very happy and feel that she has become slimmer, but the person who said this at the moment is the queen mother, and her expression is obviously wrong.
Yao Yanyan had been fighting with the Queen Mother for so long in her previous life, and she had never been afraid. Although her relationship with the Queen Mother was better in this life, at this moment, facing the Queen Mother’s appearance of not playing cards according to the routine, she found it more difficult than ever. She couldn't help touching her belly, and tentatively replied, "Queen dowager, the concubine's belly has always been this big!"
The queen mother looked at her complicatedly, "You are not pregnant?"
I go! Dare to love that the Queen Mother has been so good to me these days, do you think I'm pregnant
Yao Yanyan wanted to know what gave the queen mother this illusion. Such misunderstandings must be explained clearly!
So Yao Yanyan nodded and said that she was not pregnant, and said to the queen mother: "Queen mother, why do you think your concubine is pregnant?"
After Yao Yanyan said these words, she watched the face on the back from shock, suspicion to surprise, and finally turned into disappointment, feeling that she had just missed a big show.
Yao Yanyan sat down on the stool in front of the mother's back with a dazed expression, and listened to the queen mother's suspicion: "At the birthday banquet, I saw your lower abdomen slightly protruding, why is this?"
Yao Yanyan:...
Was this the reason? Regarding the fact that the emperor’s mind was so open that he felt that Chen's envoy would assassinate him, so he wrapped iron sheets on his body, Yao Yanyan felt that it would be detrimental to his majesty, so she lied casually and said: "Queen dowager, that day's concubine I felt a little bit cold in my stomach, so I wrapped it in more layer of cloth."
The queen mother seemed to have not heard Yao Yanyan's words.
In this harem, the only one who was favored by the emperor was Concubine Yao. According to the report from the Bureau of Respect, Concubine Yao and the emperor were very diligent in their affairs. The queen mother had long thought about it. It stands to reason that if Concubine Yao had no body Question, I should have been pregnant long ago, but this Concubine Yao dominates the emperor’s favor, but there is still no news. The queen mother looks at it day by day, she is very anxious, so she will give him a woman again and again against the emperor’s disgust. , I just hope which woman in the harem will be lucky enough to be pregnant with the dragon seed. When the prince is born, whether the emperor wants to pet Concubine Yao alone, it doesn’t matter if he wants to dismiss the harem. The queen mother doesn’t care, as long as there is an heir in the Great Qi Jiangshan.
However, she finally found an opportunity to host a family banquet, but her Majesty was so angry that the queen mother never wanted to see them two again. Who knew that at the birthday banquet, Yao Fei's belly was slightly raised. The Queen Mother was overjoyed at the time, thinking that Concubine Yao was concealed for fear of being framed, so she did not ask. In the next few days, she summoned people from the Respect Bureau and learned that the emperor and Concubine Yao hadn't done anything for several days. In her heart, she became more sure about the pregnancy of Yao Fei, so she would frequently give gifts to Yao Fei these days, but now she realized that all of this was wrong and misunderstood...
Yao Yanyan saw that the queen mother's expression was not right, and she rarely expressed concern, "Queen mother, what's the matter with you?"
The queen mother asked the maid beside her to support her back to the bedroom, and said in a daze: "You go, the mourning family is going to rest for a while, rest for a while..." Then, the queen mother was swayed away by the maid. As I walked, I kept turning the rosary in my hand, and said to my heart: I want to go to sleep, wake up and recite Buddhist scriptures, recite Buddhist scriptures...
Yao Yanyan stood there, looking at the back of the Queen Mother, she looked like a few years old, and felt her conscience aching. But the conscience is so painful, she will not return the gift from the queen mother, and she can exchange a lot of money.
In order to avoid irritating the empress dowager any more, she still doesn't come to Cihe Palace in the future.
She convinced herself with peace of mind, Yao Yanyan patted her chest, turned and left Cihe Palace.
As time passed day by day, everything in Daqi was changing. This change was slow, but there was a kind of upward force that allowed this originally decadent country to glow with new vitality day by day.
-Tongzhou City
Early in the morning, a pork shop in the east of the city opened its door for business. The owner opened a stall at the entrance of the shop, and put the fresh pork slaughtered in the early morning on a long wooden board at the entrance of the shop, and then took it out of the house and grind it. A good knife, put it on the cutting board.
As soon as he set up the stall, customers waiting to buy fresh pork rushed over, for fear that he would not be able to buy the best meat if he was a step late. After all, the meat of this old Wang's pork shop is the best in Tongzhou city, and even a wealthy household in the north of the city sends people to him every day to buy meat.
"Butcher Wang, cut me two catties of pork belly, make it fatter!" said a woman carrying a basket.
Wang Tuhu responded, picked a piece and asked, "Do you think this piece will work?"
The woman took a look and said with satisfaction: "The one chosen by Wang Tuhu for me must be good."
Wang Butcher laughed, and he lifted the knife to cut off a piece neatly, and swung it on the scale, no more, no less, just two catties. He gave the guests the time to pack pork, and asked: "Why do you cut such meat today? But is there a happy event at home?"
The woman smiled and said, "Isn't it a happy event? The government issued a notice saying that the money can be deposited with the court, and it can be retrieved at any time, and the money can be taken back! Where can I find such a good thing?" , The woman paid the money, carried the pork belly wrapped in lotus leaves and walked briskly.
Although Wang Tuhu didn't ask carefully, he had already taken the matter the woman said to his heart.
The pig he slaughtered yesterday was sold out before the morning. Wang Butcher cleaned up the stall, closed the door of the shop, and walked to the back yard. He bought the house well. The front is facing the street, and there is a small shop where you can do business. He has a small yard and two wing rooms at the back. He lives here with his wife and children.
As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw the mother-in-law coming back from her natal house. She hurried in through the back door with a vegetable basket on her back. When she saw him, she said: "Master, I have something to discuss with you!"
Wang Tuhu also said, "It just so happens that I have something to tell you."
The mother-in-law first said: "My head, I'm going to my natal family this time. Guess what my brother said?"
Wang Tuhu asked, "What did you say?" Although his brother-in-law is a small servant in the government office, he is also a person worthy of attention to ordinary people like Wang Tuhu.
The mother-in-law went back to the house with him, and said: "My brother said, the court issued a notice saying that the family has spare money, and it can be deposited in the treasury. The court will give a voucher if the money can be deposited for one year. , You can take advantage of money! One tael of silver can get twenty wenli money!"
"There is still such a good thing!" When Wang Tuhu first heard that the woman who bought the meat said that he could get the profit, he thought it would be good to get a few pennies a year for one or two pennies, but he didn't expect to have twenty pennies. With so much, I was surprised and delighted at the moment, almost unable to return to God, he said anxiously: "Daughter-in-law, you can't tell me, is this true?"
Wang Tuhu’s wife was unhappy and said, "Where can I tell you about this kind of major event? My brother said this personally. This notice has already been posted. About tomorrow, the news will spread throughout the city!" Then, she asked: "The owner, should we deposit the money that our family hides?"
Although Wang Butcher is only a pig farmer and sells pigs, he sells pigs well. After so many years of business, he has settled down and saved more than a hundred taels of money, but there is no problem. For those rich families, A hundred taels of silver is nothing, but for ordinary people like Wang Tuhu, a hundred taels of silver is already very valuable. Worried that the money will be exposed, the couple has been burying the silver under the bed of the main house, and they will look at it from time to time. , For fear of being stolen by a thief.
Although there are banks nowadays, the silver can be exchanged for bank notes or deposited in the bank, but depositing money in the bank requires the bank’s custody fee, and changing to bank notes... The couple is even more unreliable. , What if one day the house catches fire and the bank notes are burned out
But now... the imperial court actually said that they can save money for them, and they can also take advantage of the money! Wang Tuhu couldn't believe it for a while.
His mother-in-law clapped her hands and said: "The master, this is the guarantee of the court. What about the imperial decree of your majesty himself! Which bank can match? I saw all of them when I came back. Many people went to the bank to withdraw money and hand it over. What about the court! I heard my brother say that the number of deposits offered by the court this time is limited. If there are too many people, there will be no deposit. If you miss this village, there will be no such shop!" He was literate and couldn't read the notices, but the younger brother said this personally, and Wang Tuhu's wife was convinced of this.
When Wang Tuhu was about to speak, he suddenly heard movement in the house. The couple couldn't help but look up and saw a six or seven-year-old boy walking out of the house rubbing his eyes. When he saw his son, Wang Tuhu's eyes were hot and he spoke. Said: "Daughter-in-law, you stay to look after the house, and I will take the money and go to the mansion to save money!"
Ordinary people, people in their thirties can marry their sons, but Wang Tuhu only had such a son in his thirties. The son was born weak, and the couple was always worried about his son’s future in order to make more money. Some money was given to his son to marry his wife when he grew up. Wang Tuhu and his wife did not even dare to rest for one day. They were afraid that they would get old and sick in the future and would not be able to do anything. The son was still young. When the money was deposited with the court, the couple no longer had to worry about the money being stolen. The profit they got from the government every year was enough for their family to chew for several months. Could there be something better than this
No!
At the same time, a similar situation happened in the home of no hundreds of people...
As the sun sets, it is another day in the evening. Yao Yanyan has just finished her work this day, so she carries the food box made by Gu Zhaorong, and plans to go to the Imperial Study Room to have dinner with her Majesty. Unexpectedly, when he went to the Imperial Study Room, his Majesty was not there. The people below said that he went to the Zichen Hall.
Your Majesty has not been to the Zichen Palace for a long time since these days. Yao Yanyan has some doubts in her heart, but she didn't think too much. The food box quietly entered the Zichen Hall, intending to see what His Majesty was doing.
As soon as he approached the screen separating the inner room, Yao Yanyan heard her Majesty muttering inside, not knowing what she was talking about.
Yao Yanyan leaned forward carefully, and through the gap in the screen, she saw her Majesty sitting on the head of the bed, holding a handful of banknotes in his hand, and counting it again, before she said to herself: "Counting, it's still two hundred thousand taels. ,Ugh!"
Yao Yanyan felt sad for her majesty, poor majesty, there were only two hundred thousand taels left in the small vault.
His Majesty the Emperor: "One hundred thousand taels should be enough to build a smaller star picking building. The remaining hundred thousand taels will be held for her concubine's birthday."
Yao Yanyan was taken aback, and then remembered that today is April 25th, and five days later, it will be her birthday. Recently, she has been too busy and she has forgotten about it.
Yao Yanyan's eyes became extremely soft, she walked out from behind the screen and shouted: "Your Majesty!"
The sudden sound made His Majesty the Emperor tremble with fright. The banknotes in his hand were almost spilled out. When he saw that it was Concubine Ai, he sighed with relief and said with joy, "Why are you here Concubine Ai? And brought a food box!"
"Yes!" Yao Yanyan brought the food box to the table and put the food on with her Majesty. Taking advantage of the meal, Yao Yanyan said: "Your Majesty, I have heard what you just said."
His Majesty the Emperor was stunned, and a little embarrassed said: "Where do you want to have a banquet on your birthday this year, I will be with you for two days."
Yao Yanyan shook her head and smiled: "Your Majesty, did you forget? The birthday banquet for your concubines this year has been held in your life." At that time, Yao Yanyan was greedy for glory and spent half a million taels of silver on a birthday banquet. Of course, there was housekeeping. The reason for corruption in the bureau, but it is also luxurious enough. this life…
Yao Yanyan glanced at the bank note that His Majesty had placed aside, and said to her heart: Your Majesty is so poor now, how can I spend half of his money for a birthday party frantically
She looked at her majesty with a smile, "I have hosted three birthday banquets in my previous life. The concubine feels boring. The concubine wants a birthday gift prepared by his majesty." Very good! Your Majesty does the handwork, so you don't need to spend money!
Hearing that, His Majesty the Emperor is a little embarrassed, his hands are very stupid, in addition to criticizing memorials, writing and writing, he can't do anything else! But this was the request of Concubine Ai. His Majesty the Emperor hesitated for a while, and still agreed, "Okay! What birthday gift Ai Concubine wants, I will do it!"
"Cake!" Yao Yanyan suddenly said the word.
His Majesty the Emperor:? ?
What is the cake
Soon after, the two of them stood in the small kitchen of Feiluan Palace. Yao Yanyan told her majesty the cake making process that appeared inexplicably in her mind, and then pushed her majesty toward the flour, and ran to get the eggs. .
At this time, everyone in the small kitchen was driven out. The picture of the emperor's personal cooking was something that the palace people dared to see, and he didn't even dare to stay at the door.
His Majesty, staring at the flour piled on the hill in front of him, hesitated, thinking of what Aifei said, so he rolled up his sleeves, scooped a large scoop of water, and poured it all on the flour. I didn't get the dough I imagined, but a lump of... sticky white stuff. His Majesty the Emperor looked at the mass of things, glanced at it suspiciously, and took two scoops of water to pour it on. Then, the batter turned into noodle soup.
Yao Yanyan turned her head and saw that her Majesty looked at a loss, she had to go to help. Who knew her feet suddenly slipped, tripped over her skirt, and fell face down severely.
With a bang, this shocked His Majesty the Emperor. He hurriedly went over to help people up, "How about Aifei Aifei? Where does it hurt?"
It's not that Yao Yanyan has never fallen. She was about to say that she was okay, and she suddenly felt a twitch in her stomach.
That's not right! I fell on my knee, why did my stomach hurt
Yao Yanyan lifted up her skirt suspiciously, and she saw the pants underneath, slowly dipping a little blood...
My Kwaishui this month is one month late, now it's finally here
At this moment, the green pot ran in from outside when he heard the movement. When he saw this scene, his face paled in fright, and he hurriedly shouted: "My lady is red! Get a doctor! Get a doctor!"
His Majesty and Yao Yanyan, who also thought that Concubine Ai had come to Kuishui, looked at each other. The two realized something afterwards, and they all stunned, and then uttered a scream at the same time!
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
His Majesty the Emperor hurriedly picked up his beloved concubine, and Sa Yazi rushed out of the small kitchen.
Yao Yanyan put her arms around her neck and her aching belly with the other, crying and shouting: "Your Majesty, I seem to be pregnant! What should I do... The child will not fall out!"
The author has something to say:
This fall was arranged by me cruelly, otherwise Aifei might wait until her belly grows up to find out that she is pregnant, sigh. jpg.
