Chapter 427 Why Am I So Good-Looking
The actual time you spend in sight of the emperor is actually very short.
Emperor Mingpei only asked a few questions, encouraged him a few words, praised him as a chivalrous doctor, and then personally wrote the four words "chivalrous spirit and benevolent heart" and ordered Yuan Xiang to write the inscription "Chivalrous Doctor Valley" for him.
At the same time, in order to reward his righteous deeds, the clinics opened by Xiayigu in various places were exempted from commercial taxes, the medicinal fields set up by Xiayigu in various provinces were exempted from land taxes, and the families of the doctors in Xiayigu were exempted from corvée labor.
It sounds like a lot, but it’s actually not much.
After all, a scholar could be exempted from tax on 100 acres of land and his family from corvee labor.
Therefore, the most impressive thing about this matter is that it was written by the emperor himself, which is a matter of honor for the family and will be passed down through the ages.
In addition, he summoned two disciples of the Divine Doctor Valley into the Imperial Hospital and appointed them as first-class imperial physicians. He also gave Bai Dongcheng the identity of a first-class imperial physician, but he did not need to work in the Imperial Hospital and was still allowed to work among the people.
In short, Xia Yigu became known to the world overnight.
Then Bai Dongcheng selected personnel, and Emperor Mingpei also sent personnel to secretly help them open clinics in various places.
Amidst the busyness, we entered the twelfth lunar month.
The weather was getting colder and colder. Xinbao worked hard to finish the garden of the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion and found two new things.
But for some reason, the Three Life Stone still didn't upgrade. Tuanzi was extremely anxious and wanted to continue looking for Yuanzi to brush it, but Mingpei Emperor just said, "It's gone."
I couldn't believe it!!
She is not a two or three-year-old child anymore, how could she possibly believe that there are only two gardens in the capital? Why did you lie to her!
But Tuanzi has no human rights. Emperor Mingpei doesn't allow her to go, so she can't go...
Instead, the brothers all have their own new lives.
Yan Shifan and the Duke of Weiguo became close friends regardless of their age difference, and every now and then, he would leave the palace to keep appointments with the Duke of Weiguo.
Yan Shirong also became friends with Li Muyi, and Li Muyi would occasionally ask him out.
Even my fourth brother was busy with matters in the garden in front and had to leave the palace from time to time.
The pavilion in front is called "Gui Lan Pavilion", so everyone has started calling this place Gui Lan Garden. The two words Gui Lan actually come from Gui Dian Lan Palace, which implies the meaning of palace. This is for Feng Shui, but to be relevant, the surrounding areas should be mainly planted with osmanthus and orchids. It is too cold now to plant them, and we will have to wait until the beginning of spring next year.
So basically, Tuanzi had very little time to spare and could only watch his brothers go out from time to time and even see them off to the door.
Every time the brothers looked back, they could see Tuanzi's worried little eyes. They walked all the way to Guilan Pavilion. When they looked back, the little rabbit at the door was still standing there on tiptoe looking at them. It was simply a stone that looked like a staring stone.
Madam Lin couldn't help but complain: "You should either leave early, before Xinbao wakes up, or leave later, after Xinbao goes to the Qianqing Palace. You must leave one after another while she is having breakfast, and you will be fed with a stomach full of cold wind."
But when the brothers left early, Tuanzi was unhappy and wanted to complain to Yeye, "They sneaked away while Xinbao was still asleep!"
If they leave later, Tuanzi will also complain to Yeye: "They pretended not to go out, but actually they sneaked away as soon as Xinbao came to the Qianqing Palace! Xinbao knows everything!"
Emperor Mingpei was filled with righteous indignation: "This is too much! How can you treat Xinbao like this!!"
"That's right!" Tuanzi muttered, "Daddy doesn't care about them!"
Emperor Mingpei said sternly: "That's too much! Don't you know that Xinbaoer is worried about them?"
“That’s right,” Tuanzi was very touched: “Ye Ye is still the best! He understands Xin Bao the best! Ye Ye and Xin Bao are of the same mind!”
She opened her little hands and rushed over, and the emperor opened his arms to welcome her. The two of them hugged each other and were very affectionate.
Fang Wuyou: "..."
Watching the same scene every day, he really became a Buddha.
Because sunflowers are not very rare flowers, after knowing that they can be eaten, Emperor Mingpei asked people to find some. Now there are four flavors of sunflower seeds in the palace, as well as pumpkin seeds. The grandfather and grandson bask in the sun together at noon every day, peel a few pumpkin seeds for each other, and chat for a while, which is quite relaxing.
But the closer they got to the seal, the busier Emperor Mingpei became.
The time for cracking melon seeds was quickly squeezed out, and the time for taking a nap was also squeezed out, leaving only time for lunch. Sometimes he had to eat with court officials, and while eating, they would talk about topics that Tuanzi could not understand.
I really don't understand.
While listening to the heavenly book and eating, I would be startled from time to time. For example, Liu Lizhi really loved to say "Your Majesty, don't do that!!"
The sound is very loud!
I ate like this for three days in a row, and not a single good-looking person got a turn! Who wants to see an old man puffing his beard and glaring?
Tuanzi was listless, even Emperor Mingpeidi noticed it, but he was really busy and had no time to coax her.
Liang Ruoxu volunteered: "I am familiar with the little princess, I will go and coax her."
Emperor Mingpei thought about his granddaughter's dream and felt that it was not very reliable, but there was no better candidate, so he nodded in agreement.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
So Liang Ruoxu came out, and when Tuanzi came over, he greeted him and saluted: "Your Highness."
Tuanzi said listlessly, "Brother Liang, no need to be polite."
Liang Ruoxu hadn't seen her for a long time. After all, Xinbao had been out of the palace to visit the garden for about half a month. Although she came to the Qianqing Palace in the morning again later, most of the cabinet was there when she came, so he couldn't see her.
Liang Ruoxu was shocked when he saw her: "Little Prince, why have you lost so much weight?"
Tuanzi looked at him as if he were a poor student and sighed, "Oh!"
Liang Ruoxu was amused by Tuanzi's little expression: "Your Highness, is there anything wrong with what I said?"
Tuanzi said listlessly: "You always say that, but Xinbao has grown up, and Xinbao is not easy to deceive! Xinbao is busy, thinking about something very important! Xinbao doesn't care whether he is fat or pretty, those are things that only children care about!"
"Oh!" Liang Ruoxu nodded, but he came with a mission, so he could only continue to ask: "What important thing is Xinbao thinking about?"
Tuanzi said, "Ye Ye is always busy! My brother is disobedient! Xin Bao doesn't have Hua Hua to look after! There are so many things to do!"
Liang Ruoxu nodded quickly: "It is indeed a big deal. It is all my fault. I shouldn't have always treated Xinbao as a two or three-year-old child... But your highness, I did not lie to you. Your highness has really lost a lot of weight."
Tuanzi glanced at him: "Really?"
"Really," Liang Ruoxu said, "I haven't seen the little prince for a long time, so I can see it. People who are often with the little prince may not be able to see it."
Tuanzi raised his little head and thought about it, and felt that it made sense.
She touched her face with her little hands... Lord Liang, who had relied on one trick for his whole life, nodded seriously.
Tuanzi went back happily.
Then she changed into a small cape and came out again, walking and walking in front of everyone...
Emperor Mingpei was discussing matters with the cabinet when he suddenly raised his hand to stop, frowning and listening. He heard Tuanzi walking up the stairs while singing: "Why am I so beautiful~~ Why am I so beautiful", and then walking down the stairs again: "I am so beautiful, what should I do... What should I do! What should I do!!"
Liang Ruoxu came back and bowed: "I am glad that I have fulfilled your mission."
Emperor Mingpei: “…”
