Then a small figure ran in. It was the eldest prince, Cao Hongyi.
He is one and a half years younger than Yu Yuanzheng's three children and is already over eight years old.
She is fair and clean-looking, and looks very similar to the emperor.
A handsome and cute age.
Following behind was the prince, who was also six years old.
Then there are Shangguan Changyu and the other three.
As soon as the children came in, the hall immediately became much more lively.
“Why don’t you call me aunt?” The queen pulled the eldest prince and the youngest prince over and brought them in front of Yu Yuanzheng.
"Aunt." The two children called out in unison.
Emperor Qiming conferred the title of Princess Zhenguo on Yu Yuanzheng, so it was appropriate for the two princes to call her aunt, and it seemed more intimate.
"After not seeing you for a few months, the two princes have grown taller and look stronger."
"Recently, their emperor has changed his martial arts master, who has stricter requirements for training." The queen explained with a smile.
"That's right. Boys need to move more so that they can grow strong. The Queen was an active person back then. Look, she's in great shape. She's already given birth to three children in just a few years. Why didn't you bring the little princess with you?"
"She was afraid of the cold and didn't want to come out, so she didn't bring the Queen Mother here."
The little princess born to the Queen is almost four years old.
Time flies.
At this time Emperor Qiming also arrived and they greeted each other.
Emperor Qiming sat in the main seat and looked at the children with great joy.
"Your Majesty, the goods we brought will soon be shipped to the capital. What are your plans next?" Yu Yuanzheng knew that Emperor Qiming was a man who could not sit still.
"I have arranged people to continue placing orders with various merchants, and prepare to go to Estria together with the foreigners. You should come with me this time. I will feel uneasy without you." Emperor Qiming also scheduled the time for Yu Yuanzheng to come.
Does he treat her as his personal doctor, or does he want to take advantage of her luck?
But I don’t need any of them.
"This time I plan to bring the eldest prince with me, so that he can also go out and see the world, and not be a frog in a well." Emperor Qiming waved to the eldest prince and called him to come forward.
"You have to shoulder the responsibility of the Great Wei in the future. You can't be too ignorant. You have to know what the outside world is like, so that you can know the gap between our Great Wei and others. Don't let your guard down just because there is no threat from Canglan."
Emperor Qiming taught with earnest words.
"Yes, Grandfather, I'll take note of it." The eldest prince Zheng nodded.
The Emperor has not yet appointed a crown prince, but everyone knows that there will be no one else except him.
Therefore, he began to receive education from the king at an early age.
"Princess Zhenguo, Yan'er was able to escape danger this time, and you played an indispensable role."
"What did the Emperor say? She is my dearest sister-in-law."
"Yes. You deserve the title of miracle doctor."
"Your Majesty, are the foreigners who came this time still the same group led by Edward?" Yu Yuanzheng changed the subject and stopped talking about the dangerous incident.
As soon as she arrived, she met the Eighth Princess, and she didn't even know about the foreigners entering Beijing.
"No, the one who came this time is Edward's son, Jack. They are all young people."
Yu Yuanzheng thought about it and understood. Edward was already in his forties, and his wife probably didn't agree with him running around anymore, so it was his son who came out this time.
"Then when do you plan to set off again?" Yu Yuanzheng also needed to make a plan.
It is impossible for her to stay with Emperor Qiming for a long time. She needs to train more people. If Emperor Qiming does something wrong again in the future, she can abandon him.
Just let her lead the way this time.
She also wanted to visit the country of Estria.
As they were chatting, the emperor arrived, followed by Shangguan Ziqi.
The two of them had just been discussing politics together in the imperial study.
The main discussion was how to deal with the goods they brought.
We will be able to enter Beijing tomorrow.
Another round of greetings.
"Is the Eighth Princess ok?" Although the Emperor knew that the Eighth Princess had a difficult delivery and that Yu Yuanzheng had performed a caesarean section on her, he was not clear about the details.
Yu Yuanzheng repeated the story of the eighth princess.
The emperor raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.
"Princess Zhenguo's medical skills are unmatched in the world. If you can spread this skill abroad, my Wei will have many more children."
"Your Majesty, I have to try again. I had no other choice that day, and I was determined to die if I failed. I had no confidence that I would succeed."
Yu Yuanzheng was still scared afterwards. Not only was she her brother's sister-in-law, but she was also the daughter of the retired emperor and the empress dowager.
But if she didn't take action, the Eighth Princess would be dead.
"You saved her, that's true." The emperor affirmed her contribution.
"With the precedent of the Eighth Princess, you can try again and try to perfect this technique and teach more people. Then, women in Wei will no longer have to die from childbirth.
Regarding this, I once asked the Ministry of Revenue to do a statistics, and it was found that every year, nearly 10,000 women in our Great Wei die from childbirth complications.
This number may not seem large, but year after year, it is a terrifying number. "
There is no war in Wei now, and the emperor focuses his energy on people's livelihood, so he pays more attention to these data.
He hoped to increase the population of Wei by more than half during his lifetime.
㳔At that time, Da Wei will be able to create more wealth.
If we want population growth, medical care is the key.
Of course, this point of view was conveyed to him by Yu Yuanzheng, and he agreed with it very much.
"Yes, your majesty obeys your command." Yu Yuanzheng stood up and bowed.
In fact, as long as the anesthetic is effective enough, there will be no problem in spreading this surgery.
It currently requires more practice and further improvement.
"By the way, Changyu and Changrui will be ten years old in three months, so they can be given titles of princes. Let them come to the palace to accompany the eldest prince to study. It's time for them to concentrate on their studies."
The emperor glanced between the children.
Shangguan Ziqi and Yu Yuanzheng looked at each other and both knew what the emperor meant.
The emperor may want to appoint a crown prince.
Now the eldest prince and the youngest prince are both born to the queen. Although there are other concubines who have given birth to princes, they can never be compared with the two legitimate princes, so there is no need to drag it out like Emperor Qiming did in the past.
The crown prince is the foundation of the country, so the sooner one is appointed, the better.
The court officials can also feel at ease and be less resentful.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"By the way, Your Majesty, there is news from the north that an iron mine has been discovered there." The emperor talked about a memorial he received this morning.
"Really? Where is it?" Emperor Qiming's eyes lit up when he heard it.
The only bad thing about Wei is that it has few iron ore mines.
“It’s the Dayin Mountain outside Jingkai City.
The mountain is quite large, and the reason why no iron ore was discovered before was because the trees were quite dense.
In recent years, a group of craftsmen went into the mountains to quarry stones. After mining the surface layer, they found that the color of the underlying layer looked like iron ore, which attracted the attention of the prefect.
I asked the blacksmith to collect some and try to refine it, and the result was that the iron yield was quite high."
Shangguan Ziqi knew where it was as soon as he heard it.
This is exactly the place where they found the iron box.
It is also the place where Prince Liu of Southern Shu fell off the cliff.
Yu Yuanzheng also wanted to do it.
Then I couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Mother, what are you laughing at?" Shangguan Yajing was standing next to Yu Yuanzheng, and was surprised to see her laugh.
"Haha..." Shangguan Ziqi burst into laughter.
Everyone was even more confused.
