He came here just to know how his fourth brother was doing and whether he had been infected. Seeing that he was fine, Sixth Master felt relieved.
When the Fourth Master heard him say this, he felt relieved.
"Then you can go back and just put your things down. He'll send someone over to take them away later.
"Fourth brother, be careful. I'll be waiting for you in the capital."
If his body allowed it, he really wanted to stay and help his fourth brother, but he knew that staying here would only cause trouble for his fourth brother.
Sixth Master didn't stay here for too long. He said a few words to Fourth Brother and left with a small group of people.
For the others who stayed behind, the Fourth Master had cotton masks and epidemic prevention pouches given to each of them, and then the guards pushed food and herbs into the city.
On the way, the Fourth Master explained the general situation here to the imperial physician who came over.
The imperial physician who came this time is Doctor Zheng, the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau. His medical skills are the most outstanding among the imperial physicians. I believe that with him, we will definitely be able to overcome this plague.
——
At this time, the letter from the Fourth Master was sent back to the capital. When Emperor Kangxi saw what was written in the letter, he felt very relieved.
Fortunately, he listened to Master Lingye's words and sent people to bring a lot of food, herbs and imperial physicians.
Otherwise, if we send it over now, by the time we get there, the place will definitely be in danger.
"Liang Jiugong, grind it." Emperor Kangxi walked to the table and sat down.
Lao Si wrote clearly in the letter that there were a lot of victims this time, and if they were all infected with the plague, there would definitely be a great demand for herbs, so people had to prepare more herbs and food and send them to the south.
“Hey~”
Liang Jiugong also walked over quickly to help with grinding.
After writing the letter, Emperor Kangxi sealed it with stationery and handed it to Liang Jiugong, "Send this letter to Ma Qi."
Liang Jiugong took it and said, "Yes, I'll go right away." Then he lowered his head and walked away with the letter.
The Fourth Master’s Mansion, inside the Purple Bamboo Courtyard.
Today, Concubine Tian brought her third prince to the mansion to play.
Several children gathered together and had a lot of fun.
When the three little ones saw their brother coming, they quickly shared their toys and had a lot of fun playing in the yard.
Fortunately, a sunshade roof was built where the slide was, and their wife also had a hand-cranked fan, so Wen Mianmian was not worried that they would get heatstroke.
Wen Mianmian and Tian Yurou sat under the peach tree, drinking tea and chatting.
Tian Yurou put down her teacup and sighed at the decoration of her yard. "I didn't expect your yard to be so well done. And that slide, how did you make it? This is the first time I've seen such a big toy."
When she first arrived here and saw that strange thing, Tian Yurou was really surprised. She had never seen it before.
I heard Mianmian say that this is a place for children to play. Such a big toy must have taken a long time to build.
Tian Yurou felt that Mianmian was living a really good life in the Fourth Master's mansion.
The Fourth Master was so willing to build a big toy for Mianmian for the children to play with.
If she asked the Third Prince for a toy for her child, he would say it would be a waste of the child's time, so her Third Prince didn't have many toys.
How could they compare to Mianmian's children? She just saw two little eunuchs carrying out a large basket of toys.
It's filled with things that kids love to play with.
"I don't have that ability. It was all done by the carpenters. The most I can do is give some suggestions." Wen Mianmian smiled embarrassedly.
"Children are young now, and it's their nature to like playing. They need to start learning after they turn three, so while they can play to their heart's content, let them play. It's not good to restrict them all the time."
Wen Mianmian raises her children in a free-range manner. As long as they don't do anything dangerous, Wen Mianmian will let them do whatever they want.
Sometimes it is not good for children to be too well protected. Appropriate free-range activities are also beneficial to their growth.
After all, they can't protect them forever, and they will have to stand on their own in the future.
"Aren't you worried they might get hurt?"
Every time her child goes out to play, she becomes extremely worried and has to keep her eyes fixed on him, otherwise she would be afraid that something might happen to her child in the blink of an eye.
"There's nothing to worry about in your own courtyard. If you go out, just ask someone to keep a close eye on you."
"You're right, but my place is different from yours. There are too many people in our house with bad intentions. I'll feel uneasy if I don't keep an eye on him." Tian Yurou also wanted her son and Mianmian's children to be as carefree as she is.
But the water in their house was too deep, and she was worried.
Mianmian is different. There are few people in the Fourth Master's mansion, and she is favored. The situations of the two are completely different.
So she simply couldn't do what Mianmian said.
Wen Mianmian knew a little about the affairs of the Third Master's Mansion, but she didn't say anything. She just said, "Just follow your heart. Some things are suitable for others, but not necessarily for you. I think the Third Master is quite sensible, which shows that you have been well educated."
"They are not as naughty as my family, who are good at everything. They are not as sensible as your Third Prince."
Tian Yurou smiled when she heard Mianmian's words: "It's okay to be naughty. They are still young and they will be fine when they grow up. My third prince was also very naughty when he was young..."
The two chatted about children, and then Tian Yurou's gossip instinct began to take effect.
"By the way, have you heard about what happened to the Eighth Lady a few days ago?" Tian Yurou said in a soft voice.
Wen Mianmian didn't understand what was going on and asked curiously, "What happened to the Eighth Lady?"
He looked around, then leaned down to Wen Mianmian's ear and whispered, "Isn't the selection about to begin? I heard that the Eighth Lady made a scene and refused to let the Eighth Prince participate in the selection. I heard that they had a huge fight over it, and the Eighth Prince was so angry that he didn't return to the Eighth Prince's residence for several days."
"Haven't you heard about such a big thing?" Tian Yurou was a little surprised.
How come Mianmian knows less than I do?
Wen Mianmian rarely inquires about these gossips, so she didn't ask anyone to inquire about these things specifically.
"Isn't the selection of concubines normal? What's wrong with Eighth Lady?" The selection of concubines is regulated, and even the emperor cannot change it easily.
Although Wen Mianmian knew that the Eighth Concubine was jealous, she did not expect that she was so jealous.
The selection of concubines was decided by our ancestors. At least one adult prince would be accepted into the palace. The Eighth Concubine was not afraid of ruining her reputation by causing such a disturbance.
"Who knows, but the reputation of the Eighth Lady as a jealous woman is well-established."
"This is quite a big deal. I thought you knew about it."
Wen Mianmian felt that she seemed to know too little about what was happening outside. It seemed that she had to ask more people to pay attention to it in the future and tell her about it, otherwise she would know nothing when others asked her.
