Chapter 230 Guanlan Pavilion
Shen Chuliu brought the Sixth Prince to a pavilion. Although it was called a pavilion, it was actually twice as big as the one in the palace.
The name is also very nice, it is called: Guanlan Pavilion.
The eunuch in charge of the palace had already found out everything, and knew that this person was extremely favored.
"Look, Madam, the name of this pavilion is also interesting. If you stand in the pavilion, you can see the waterfall on the opposite side of the mountain."
Shen Chuliu became interested: "As expected? Let me take a look."
As he said that, he held Zizhu's hand and went in. Sure enough, looking out from the main hall, they could see the waterfall on the opposite hillside. Although it was not too close, it was also very beautiful.
There is also a small bamboo forest outside the window, and behind it is a patch of redbud flowers in full bloom.
"Manager Yu, right? It shows you've put a lot of effort into it." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"I dare not. If the Majesty likes it, I will have done a good deed. You see, I am thinking of you and the prince. There is mint planted at the other end of this pavilion. In summer, it smells good and there are no mosquitoes. The doors and windows have been renovated and replaced by the servants. They have been fumigated with pine resin to ensure that they are tightly closed. When the windows are not opened, no insects can get in. If the windows are opened, there are fine screens on the windows, all of which have just been replaced, which can definitely keep out mosquitoes."
"Oh, you are such a considerate man, sir." Zi Rui smiled, "This is very thoughtful. I think this is indeed a good idea."
"Since you think it's a good idea, why don't you go and get a big purse for Manager Yu?" Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"Oh." Zi Rui left with a smile.
Manager Yu hurriedly said he dared not, took the purse and bent down even lower.
"Other things are fine. I'm not picky. But the food has to be clean. Let the manager worry about it." Shen Chuliu said lightly.
The so-called cleanliness means that no one is allowed to touch anything.
Since Manager Yu had inquired about it, how could he not know how courageous this master was.
How could I not notice this?
He responded hurriedly and said a lot of nice things before leaving.
I thought to myself that even if you didn't tell me, if something really happened to you, I might not be able to save my head, right?
The queen didn't care about how to arrange their accommodation from the beginning. She had the list in hand when she was in the palace.
I only know the name, as for whether it is good or bad, that depends on the arrangements of the people below.
Therefore, Shen Chuliu's treatment was entirely due to his "reputation".
The Sixth Prince woke up and looked around with his eyes open. Shen Chuliu took him and hugged him: "Yan'er, you are not used to it?"
The Sixth Prince naturally couldn’t speak, and in fact, a child of more than four months old couldn’t feel the change of place so obviously.
It’s just not a familiar place, and I feel a little uneasy.
Fortunately, there were familiar people around him, so he didn't cry.
This child is not born to like crying.
Shen Chuliu carried him to his residence. Because it was a pavilion, the middle was the main hall, with bedrooms on both sides and a row of small rooms at the back for the servants to live in.
Shen Chuliu carried the child in and saw that the wet nurses had checked the child. Zhemei also smelled everywhere carefully to make sure there was no problem.
"I smelled a strong scent of mugwort and guessed it was fumigated yesterday. I also checked the corners and found that they had been freshly painted. There was nothing wrong with it." Zhemei said.
"Well, that's good." The Sixth Prince's things were all brought out from the palace, except for the furniture which was here, so he felt relieved after checking it.
The Sixth Prince was put down, and just as he was being quiet for a while, he tried to turn over.
He learned how to roll over a little late, only starting in the last few days.
Shen Chuliu watched him trying hard to turn over, and perhaps he used too much force and accidentally let out a fart.
Shen Chuliu burst out laughing, and the servants also laughed.
The little, quiet Sixth Prince was fine at first, but out of nowhere he suddenly pouted and burst into tears.
Shen Chuliu was shocked and quickly picked him up: "What happened?"
Zizhu was at a loss for words: "Could it be that... he is disgusted by you laughing at him? Or does he feel embarrassed?"
Shen Chuliu's eyes widened: "Wow, in more than four months...it has become a spirit?"
She lowered her head to look at the miserable crying child and hurriedly called the nurse to coax him.
As a result, the wet nurse couldn't coax the baby anymore and he refused to drink milk.
Shen Chuliu hurriedly took it and shook it to coax the baby for a long time, until Zi Rui took out a small hairpin to tease her. The tassels on the hairpin shook, and it seemed to work.
Only then did the Sixth Prince stop crying.
This is the first time I have cried like this since I was born.
Fortunately, the baby was coaxed into submission and the wet nurses checked and found nothing wrong.
Shen Chuliu was sweating all over: "It's really hard to coax a child."
Everyone laughed.
Shen Chuliu returned to his place, fetched some water and washed himself, and then dinner was delivered to him.
It was very plentiful, not only her food was plentiful, but the food for the wet nurses was also very good.
Shen Chuliu also rewarded a few maids, Yuanxiao and Yinhu with their own dishes. They had all worked hard all day.
The Sixth Prince was fine after crying, and continued to turn over after eating.
Went to bed early.
That night, the emperor stayed overnight in the queen's Heqing Palace.
This is not surprising.
The next morning, Shen Chuliu went to see the child first, and confirmed that the child was fine as before. She instructed the nurse: "It's different from the palace. Be careful when going in and out, and don't let the child be blown by the mountain wind."
The wet nurses were also very cautious and naturally agreed.
After Shen Chuliu left, the wet nurse Wei said, "Your Majesty is also very caring about the Sixth Prince."
"You are right. How can you not care about your own child?" Nanny Jin laughed and said, "Don't tell others about this. It will easily cause trouble."
"Look at what you said. I'm not stupid. That's not what I meant. I meant that this is the queen's first child after all." Nanny Wei said hurriedly.
"Hey, your Majesty comes from a wealthy family. Even if she doesn't know how to do something, there will naturally be people to teach her. No matter what, a child raised by his or her own mother will not suffer." Nanny Jin said.
"Yes, I heard that the fifth prince in Ruiqing Palace is still covered with a thick quilt." Nanny Wei shook her head: "It's true that the child is afraid of the cold, but you can't cover him like this, right?"
"You don't know how much benefit they can get from serving the Fifth Prince. Just hope they don't make mistakes." The biological mother has a low status, so what can she give to the wet nurse as a reward?
Even the four seasons and eight festivals have no income.
Although wet nurses are not supposed to wait for such a small reward, their monthly salary is high, which is good enough in itself.
But serving the prince is different from serving the prince. For example, the wet nurses are also respected when they go out.
But those who serve the Fifth Prince will become slaves when they go out, right?
Of course, Shen Chuliu was famous, and the women in the town had no bad intentions, but they did have a sense of superiority psychologically.
"It's rare to see a prince give birth to a son, and it's Baolin's... and not that Miao Cairen." Nanny Jin shook her head.
Who in the palace doesn't know that Miao Cairen's background is very poor? If this is not as good as this, how much worse can it be? The old lady came to Wuhan, an old lady in her 70s, it was simply... oh... scolded, scolded, walked, walked... It was so difficult for me.
